What is the meaning of the word ‘Gadar’?
- a.Freedom
- b.Rebel
- c.Revolt
- d.Patriot
Answer: (C) Revolt
Ghadar is an Urdu-Punjabi word meaning ‘revolt’ or ‘mutiny’, and it gave its name to the Ghadar Party and its newspaper founded in San Francisco in 1913. ‘Rebel’ is the nearest wrong option, but the word names the act of revolt, not the person.
