Option 1, which includes incidents 1, 2, and 3, is the correct answer.

1. The Chittagong Armoury Raid: This incident involved a group of young revolutionaries led by Surya Sen who attacked the British armoury in Chittagong to acquire weapons for the movement. This act of rebellion struck fear and alarm among the British rulers.

2. Refusal of Garhwal regiment to open fire: This incident occurred when a platoon of the Garhwal regiment, which was primarily composed of Indian soldiers, refused to obey orders to open fire on a protesting group called Khudai Khidmatgars. The act of disobedience by Indian soldiers caused panic among the British rulers.

3. Strike of textile workers in Sholapur: This incident involved a strike by textile workers in Sholapur, during which they not only boycotted work but also attacked government buildings. This act of civil disobedience and violence caused concern and alarm among the British rulers.

Option 2, which includes incidents 2, 3, and 4, is incorrect as it excludes the Chittagong Armoury Raid (incident 1), which was also a significant event that caused alarm among the British.

Option 3
