Dadabhai Naoroji was a founding member of the Bombay Association (1852), the first political organization in the Bombay Presidency, alongside Jagannath Shunkerseth [t3][t6]. 3. Sir Syed Ahmed Khan founded the Muhammadan Anglo-Oriental (MAO) College at Aligarh in 1875, which later became Aligarh Muslim University [t4][t5]. 4. Lala Lajpat Rai was associated with the Arya Samaj and the D.A.V. College movement [c2], but he was not the founder of the Anushilan Samiti; that revolutionary organization was founded in Bengal by figures like Pramathanath Mitra [t4][t8]. Therefore, pairs 1, 2, and 3 are correctly matched, making option 4 the correct choice.
