Explanation

The question from the UPSC Prelims 2006 requires matching historical figures with their respective organizations or roles. (A) Shyamji Krishna Varma founded the Indian Home Rule Society in London in 1905, making him associated with the India House (3). (B) Madame Bhikaji Cama is famously known for unfurling the first Indian National Flag at the International Socialist Conference in Stuttgart, Germany, in 1907 (4). (C) Annie Besant was a key leader of the Theosophical Society in India and later launched the Home Rule League (1). (D) Aurobindo Ghosh was a prominent nationalist leader who turned towards spiritualism and was associated with the Auroville/Pondicherry movement (2). Matching these pairs (A-3, B-4, C-1, D-2) leads to the sequence 3 4 1 2. While the provided snippets discuss general UPSC paper patterns, internal historical knowledge confirms these specific associations for the 2006 exam.
