Arrange the following military operations undertaken by India against Pakistan in correct chronological order : 1. Operation Cactus Lily 2. Operation Riddle 3. Operation Meghdoot 4. Operation Safed Sagar Select the answer using the code given below.

The correct answer is A. Fifteen women were members of the Constituent Assembly, and Begum Aizaz Rasul was the only Muslim woman among them; Dakshayani Velayudhan was its only Dalit woman member. Option B is wrong because Sarojini Naidu was one of several women in the Assembly, which also included Hansa Mehta, Durgabai Deshmukh, Rajkumari Amrit Kaur, Renuka Ray, Vijaya Lakshmi Pandit and Sucheta Kriplani. Option C is wrong on the plain fact; women took part in the debates on fundamental rights, on the uniform civil code and on the status of minorities. Option D is wrong because the Drafting Committee was chaired by Dr B. R. Ambedkar; Sucheta Kriplani's remembered moment in the Assembly is her singing of Vande Mataram at the session of 14 August 1947.

The correct answer is A, the Heraka movement of the Naga hills. Gaidinliu, a Rongmei Naga, joined her cousin Haipou Jadonang's Heraka movement, which combined religious revival with resistance to British rule, and took over its leadership after he was hanged in 1931. Arrested in 1932 while still in her teens, she remained in jail until 1947; Jawaharlal Nehru, who met her in Shillong jail, gave her the title Rani. Option B is wrong because the Ulgulan of Birsa Munda was in Chhotanagpur at the end of the nineteenth century. Option C is wrong because the Santhal rebellion of 1855 to 1856 was led by Sidhu and Kanhu. Option D is wrong because the Bardoli satyagraha of 1928 was a peasant movement in Gujarat led by Vallabhbhai Patel.

The correct answer is C, Madras. The Women's Indian Association was started at Madras in 1917 by Annie Besant, Margaret Cousins and Dorothy Jinarajadasa, and it took up the franchise, education and the removal of social disabilities; its journal was Stri Dharma. Option A is wrong because Bombay is associated with the Seva Sadan and with the All India Women's Conference work of later years rather than with this body's founding. Option B is wrong because Calcutta was the seat of the Bharat Stree Mahamandal of 1910 and of the Congress sessions of 1917 and 1933 presided over by women. Option D is wrong because Lahore is remembered for the Congress session of 1929 and the Purna Swaraj resolution, not for this association. The year 1917 is easy to fix in memory because the same year brought the women's deputation to Montagu.

The correct answer is A, Savitribai Phule. She taught at the school the couple opened at Bhidewada in Pune in 1848 and is remembered as the first woman teacher of the modern Indian school; she also worked for widows and against caste discrimination through the Satyashodhak Samaj. Option B is wrong because Tarabai Shinde is known for her tract Stri Purush Tulana of 1882, a defence of women against the double standards of her time, not for the school. Option C is wrong because Anandi Gopal Joshi was one of the first Indian women to earn a degree in Western medicine, in 1886. Option D is wrong as the answer here because, although Fatima Sheikh taught alongside Savitribai Phule in the same enterprise, the question asks for the founder-teacher who worked with Jyotirao Phule.

The correct answer is B, Sarala Devi Chaudhurani. A niece of Rabindranath Tagore, she set up the Bharat Stree Mahamandal in 1910 to work for the education of women across provinces and classes, and it is counted as the first women's organisation of all-India reach. Option A is wrong because Pandita Ramabai's institutions were the Arya Mahila Samaj of 1882 and the Sharada Sadan of 1889, both earlier but regional in their work and aimed chiefly at widows. Option C is wrong because Margaret Cousins helped found the Women's Indian Association at Madras in 1917 and founded the All India Women's Conference in 1927. Option D is wrong because Ramabai Ranade founded the Seva Sadan in Bombay and Poona, which trained women for work and service.
