निम्नलिखित कथनों को पढ़िए और सही विकल्प चुनिए :
अभिकथन (A): पीर अली खान को 1857 के विद्रोह के दौरान फाँसी दी गई थी।
कारण (R): वह एक ब्रिटिश मुखबिर था, जिसने विद्रोह के दौरान पक्ष बदल लिया था।
Detailed Solution & Logic
A is true, but R is false/ A सत्य है, लेकिन R असत्य है।
Assertion (A) is true because Peer Ali Khan was executed during the Revolt of 1857. Historical accounts state that he was arrested and publicly hanged by the British in Patna on 7 July 1857 for his role in the uprising.
Reason (R) is false because Peer Ali Khan was not a British informant who switched sides. He is remembered as a revolutionary freedom fighter, a bookseller/bookbinder who helped spread anti-British messages and supported the rebellion from the beginning.
So, the correct answer is:
A is true, but R is false.
Assertion (A) सत्य है क्योंकि पीर अली खान को 1857 के विद्रोह के दौरान फाँसी दी गई थी। ऐतिहासिक विवरणों के अनुसार, उन्हें विद्रोह में भाग लेने के कारण 7 जुलाई 1857 को पटना में अंग्रेजों ने सार्वजनिक रूप से फाँसी दी थी।
Reason (R) असत्य है क्योंकि पीर अली खान ब्रिटिश informant नहीं थे जो बाद में पक्ष बदल गए हों। वे एक क्रांतिकारी स्वतंत्रता सेनानी थे, जो पुस्तकों के माध्यम से गुप्त संदेश और क्रांतिकारी विचार फैलाते थे।
इसलिए सही उत्तर है:
A सत्य है, लेकिन R असत्य है।
Extra facts / अतिरिक्त तथ्य
Peer Ali Khan is considered one of the important but lesser-known heroes of the 1857 Revolt in Bihar, especially in Patna, where his memory is commemorated in public places.
पीर अली खान को बिहार, विशेषकर पटना, में 1857 के विद्रोह के महत्वपूर्ण लेकिन कम चर्चित नायकों में गिना जाता है। उनकी स्मृति में वहाँ सार्वजनिक स्थानों का नामकरण भी किया गया है।
