Question

(A) The Assertive Nationalists wanted immediate attainment of Swaraj or complete independence as it existed in the United Kingdom.

(R) The Early Nationalists wanted to achieve self-government and autonomy within the Empire and not complete independence.

पर्याय

• (R) contradicts (А).

• (R) is the reason for (A).

• (A) is true, but (R) is false.

• (A) and (R) are independent of each other.

Answer 1

(A) and (R) are independent of each other.

Explanation:

Both (A) and (R) are true statements, but they are independent (R) (the Early/Moderate nationalists wanted limited self‑government) does not by itself explain why the Assertive/Extremist leaders demanded immediate Swaraj; the rise of assertive nationalism had several causes (failure of moderates, Curzon’s repressive measures, international events), so the two statements are treated as independent.
