Correct Answer:

Lala Hardayal

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 4 - Lala Hardayal

The Gadar Movement was founded by Lala Hardayal in 1913.
He was a revolutionary Indian nationalist and the founder of the Ghadar Party, a political party that sought to overthrow British rule in India.

Hardayal was born in Jalandhar, Punjab, India, in 1884. He studied at Lahore College and Oxford University. In 1911, he settled in the United States, where he became involved in the Indian independence movement.

In 1913, Hardayal founded the Ghadar Party in San Francisco. The party's goal was to overthrow British rule in India and to establish an independent Indian republic. The Ghadar Party published a newspaper called the Ghadar, which advocated for violence and revolution.

The Ghadar Movement inspired many Indians to join the fight for independence. In 1914, the Ghadar Party organized a conspiracy to overthrow British rule in India. However, the conspiracy was foiled by the British government.

Hardayal was arrested and deported from the United States in 1914. He returned to India in 1927, where he continued to work for Indian independence. He died in 1939.
