Which of the following pairs is not matched correctly?
Verified Answer
A. Moplah Rebellion: Malabar region
B. Eka Movement: Handoi, Bahraich and Sitapur of Uttar Pradesh
C. Pabna Rebellion: Maharashtra
D. Tebhaga Movement: Bengal
Explanation:
The Pabna Rebellion, a significant peasant uprising against oppressive landlords, occurred in the Pabna district of Bengal Presidency (present-day Bangladesh) between 1873 and 1876. Therefore, its association with Maharashtra is factually incorrect. Option A, the Moplah Rebellion of 1921, correctly took place in the Malabar region of Kerala. Option B, the Eka Movement (1921-22), was indeed active in the Awadh region of Uttar Pradesh, encompassing districts like Hardoi, Bahraich, and Sitapur. Option D, the Tebhaga Movement (1946-47), was a major peasant movement that originated in Bengal. Thus, the pair 'Pabna Rebellion: Maharashtra' is the one that is not matched correctly.
