Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: (c) Krishak Praja Party — Abdul Haqq

Explanation

Pair (c) is wrong: the Krishak Praja Party of Bengal (1936, from the Nikhil Banga Praja Samiti of 1929) was led by A. K. Fazlul Haq, "Sher-e-Bangla", not "Abdul Haqq". It spoke for the tenant farmers.

  • Khaksar movement (1931): Allama Mashriqi (Inayatullah Khan);
  • Khudai Khidmatgar (1929): Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan, the "Frontier Gandhi".
