    Hardit Singh

    Correct Answer

     Mohammad Barakatullah 

    Incorrect Answer

    Ram Chandra 

    Incorrect Answer

    Balwant Singh

    Incorrect Answer
    Explanation:

    Here’s what you need to know:

    - Hardit Singh chartered the Komagata Maru. He was a Sikh businessman who led the passengers from India to Canada in 1914, challenging the racist immigration laws of the time.

    - Mohammad Barakatullah was a revolutionary and freedom fighter, mostly active in anti-British movements. He didn’t charter the ship.

    - Ram Chandra was another member of the Ghadar Party, involved in revolutionary activities but not directly linked to the Komagata Maru’s charter.

    - Balwant Singh also participated in revolutionary circles but, again, not the main figure behind the voyage.

    What this really means is: Hardit Singh is the one in the spotlight for the Komagata Maru episode. The others were all important in the independence struggle, just not for this story.
