The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Ghadar Party.

The Ghadar Party was founded in San Francisco, United States, in 1913 during the Indian National Movement. This revolutionary organization was established by Indian immigrants, primarily Punjabis, who sought to overthrow British rule in India through armed revolution. Key leaders included Lala Har Dayal, Sohan Singh Bhakna, and Kartar Singh Sarabha. The party published the "Ghadar" newspaper to inspire Indians to rise against colonial oppression. Its headquarters, the "Ghadar Ashram," became a hub for revolutionary activities, uniting expatriate Indians in the fight for independence.
