Explanation

The Correct Answer is option 1 i.e.  Delhi .

The Hindustan Socialist Republican Association (HSRA) was established in 1928 in Delhi by revolutionary leaders including Chandrasekhar Azad and Bhagat Singh. The HSRA was a radical organization committed to overthrowing British colonial rule through revolutionary activities rather than constitutional or nonviolent methods. It promoted socialist ideals, equality, and youth-led activism, and carried out significant operations such as the Assembly bombing and the Kakori train robbery to challenge colonial authority and inspire mass uprising. The organization became a key force in the Indian independence movement, leaving a lasting legacy of courage, sacrifice, and revolutionary zeal.

Other options:

  • Kanpur: Important center for revolutionary activities, but not the founding place.

  • Agra: Not related to HSRA’s establishment.

  • Lahore: Served as a hub for some members, but not the origin city.
