Explanation:
Maulana Abul Kalam (1888-1958): Born Abul Kalam Mohiyuddin Ahmed in 1888, Azad grew up in a religious and scholarly family. He actively participated in the Indian independence movement against the British rule and was a leader of Congress. In the first cabinet of independent India, Azad served as the Education Minister.
Rajkumari Amrit Kaur was a prominent Indian freedom fighter (Gandhian), social reformer, and Health Minister in independent India. Amrit Kaur came from the royal family of Kapurthala, Punjab.
She inherited Christianity from her mother Priscilla. She served as the Minister for Health from the early years of independent India (Nehru's first ministry after independence) until 1957.
The Congress Socialist Party was formed in 1934 with Acharya Narendra Dev as the founding President of Congress Socialist Party.
A.K. Gopalan began his political career as a Congress worker (joined in 1927) in Kerala. In 1939, he made the decision to join the Communist Party. Following the split in the Communist Party in 1964, Gopalan aligned himself with the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (co-founder).
