Options:

Hindustan Republican Association

Indian National Congress

Indian National Army

Gadar Party

Correct Answer:

Hindustan Republican Association

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 1- Hindustan Republican Association

The Kakori Conspiracy was planned by the members of the Hindustan Republican Association (HRA) in 1925.

The HRA was a revolutionary organization founded in 1924 by Ram Prasad Bismil and Ashfaqullah Khan. The organization's goal was to overthrow British rule in India through a violent revolution. The HRA was responsible for a number of daring attacks on British targets, including the Kakori Train Robbery.

The Kakori Train Robbery took place on August 9, 1925, in Kakori, Uttar Pradesh. A group of HRA members robbed a train carrying British government money. The robbery was successful, but one passenger was killed in the crossfire. The British authorities responded to the robbery with a massive crackdown on the HRA. Many HRA members were arrested, including Bismil and Khan.

The Kakori Conspiracy was a major turning point in the Indian independence movement. It showed that the British were not invincible, and it inspired other revolutionaries to take up arms against the British. The Kakori Conspiracy also helped to popularize the HRA and its ideology.

The Indian National Congress, Indian National Army, and Gadar Party were all important organizations in the Indian independence movement, but they were not involved in the Kakori Conspiracy.
