Which one of the following Statements about Bipin Chandra Pal is correct?

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: B
Explanation

Bipin Chandra Pal was a prominent leader of the extremist (or militant) faction of the Indian National Congress [1]. Along with Lala Lajpat Rai and Bal Gangadhar Tilak, he formed the famous 'Lal-Bal-Pal' triumvirate that spearheaded the assertive nationalist movement during the Swadeshi phase following the 1905 Partition of Bengal [3]. Unlike the Moderates, who relied on constitutional methods like petitions and representations, Pal advocated for more radical measures including the boycott of British goods, strikes, and the promotion of national education [1]. He is often regarded as the 'Father of Revolutionary Thoughts' in India due to his role in shifting the national movement toward a more militant and self-reliant approach. He did not serve as the Minister of Defence or Chief Minister of West Bengal, as those roles were held by Baldev Singh and leaders like P.C. Ghosh or B.C. Roy respectively.
