Explanation
The question from the UPSC Prelims 2009 requires matching historical figures with their respective organizations or roles. Shyamji Krishna Varma founded the Indian Home Rule Society in London in 1905. Madame Bhikaji Cama is famously associated with the Paris Indian Society and unfurling the Indian flag at Stuttgart. Annie Besant was a key leader of the Home Rule Movement in India, establishing her league in 1916. Aurobindo Ghosh, after his involvement in the revolutionary movement, became a prominent figure associated with the spiritual and nationalist philosophy at Pondicherry. Matching these: A (Shyamji Krishna Varma) with 4 (Indian Home Rule Society), B (Madame Bhikaji Cama) with 3 (Paris Indian Society), C (Annie Besant) with 1 (Home Rule Movement), and D (Aurobindo Ghosh) with 2 (Pondicherry). This corresponds to the sequence A-4, B-3, C-1, D-2.
