The correct answer is option 4, which states that all three statements (1, 2, and 3) are correct.

Statement 1 states that the bomb, which was aimed at Mrs. Pringle and her daughter, was actually intended for Mr. Kingsford, the District Judge of Muzaffarpur. This indicates that the attackers had a specific target and purpose for their action.

Statement 2 explains that the revolutionaries wanted to kill Mr. Kingsford because he had imposed severe punishments on Swadeshi activists. This provides a motive for their attempt to assassinate him.

Statement 3 mentions that Khudiram and Prafulla Chaki, the individuals responsible for the attack, were sentenced to death as a consequence of their actions. This adds further details about the severe consequences they faced for their involvement in the crime.
