Explanation

The question from the 2009 UPSC Preliminary examination requires matching historical figures with their respective organizations. Shyamji Krishna Varma founded the Indian Home Rule Society in London in 1905 to promote the cause of Indian self-rule. Madame Bhikaji Cama was a prominent revolutionary who co-founded the Paris Indian Society and is famously known for unfurling the first version of the Indian flag at Stuttgart. Annie Besant, a leading figure in the Theosophical Society, launched the Home Rule League in India in 1916 to demand dominion status. Aurobindo Ghosh was a key leader of the extremist faction of the Indian National Congress and was deeply involved in the revolutionary activities of the Anushilan Samiti in Bengal. Therefore, the correct matching is A-2 (Varma - Indian Home Rule Society), B-1 (Cama - Paris Indian Society), C-4 (Besant - Home Rule League), and D-3 (Ghosh - Anushilan Samiti).
