Explanation
The question from the UPSC Prelims 2007 matches prominent leaders of the Indian National Movement with their respective organizations or roles. (A) Dadabhai Naoroji was a key figure in the East India Association, founded in London in 1866 to advocate for Indian interests. (B) Surendranath Banerjee was the founder of the Indian Association (1876), which aimed to promote political intellectual progress. (C) Badruddin Tyabji was a leader of the Bombay Presidency Association and notably served as the first Muslim President of the Indian National Congress.
