• In order to better organize the campaign for the amelioration of the untouchables' condition, Gandhi set up a new body in October 1932. It was first named the All India Anti-Untouchability League and later renamed the Harijan Sevak Sangh. Gandhi started publishing a weekly journal called Harijan on 11 February 1933 from Yerwada Jail during British rule. Hence pair 1 is correctly matched.• All India Kisan Congress Sabha, 1936 was founded in Lucknow in April 1936 with Swami Sahjanand Saraswati as the President and N.G. Ranga as the general secretary. Hence, pair 2 is correctly matched.• E. V. Ramaswami Naicker organized the Self Respect Movement, designed as Dravidian Uplift, seeking to expose Brahminical tyranny and the deceptive methods by which they controlled all spheres of Hindu life. Hence, pair 3 is correctly matched.Source: Spectrum
