Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Bhikaji Cama.
In 1907, Madam Bhikaji Cama unfurled the first version of the Indian national flag in Stuttgart, Germany, during the International Socialist Conference. A prominent freedom fighter and nationalist, she raised the flag to garner international support for India’s independence from British rule. The flag she hoisted was green, saffron, and red, symbolizing unity, courage, and sacrifice. It bore the words “Vande Mataram” and represented a call for India’s freedom. Cama’s act was a bold statement against British oppression and marked one of the earliest international assertions of India’s right to self-rule.
