Explanation
The correct answer is B because V. D. Savarkar, along with his brother Ganesh Savarkar, founded the Abhinav Bharat Society in 1904. It grew out of an earlier organization called Mitra Mela, which was established in Nasik in 1899. The society was a secret revolutionary group aimed at overthrowing British rule through armed rebellion. While the other individuals mentioned were also prominent revolutionaries, Khudiram Bose and Prafulla Chaki were associated with the Jugantar group, and Bhagat Singh was a leader of the Hindustan Socialist Republican Association.
