Correct Answer: B
Detailed Solution
The correct matching is — Swadesh–Gorakhpur, Bharat Bandhu–Hathras, Satyawadi–Agra and Shakti–Almora.
Swadesh was published from Gorakhpur. Official records relating to journalism in Uttar Pradesh list ‘Swadesh’ among the newspapers published from Gorakhpur around 1919.
Satyawadi was published from Agra. The same official account of journalism in Uttar Pradesh lists ‘Satyawadi’ as a publication from Agra. Thus, C matches with 1.
Shakti was associated with Almora. After the closure of the Almora Akhbar, Badri Datt Pandey started the new weekly Shakti, which became an important medium for mobilising public opinion in Kumaon against colonial rule and practices such as begar.
