Ministry of Culture, Government of India as part of Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav celebrated the birth anniversary of Saheed Ram Prasad Bismil in June, 2021 at which one of the following places in Uttar Pradesh?

Ram Prasad Bismil was born on 11 June 1897 in Shahjahanpur, and that is where the Ministry of Culture's Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav event for his birth anniversary was held in June 2021. So the answer is B) Shahjahanpur.

• A) Chauri Chaura: Famous for the 1922 incident that led Gandhi to call off Non-Cooperation, but it is in Gorakhpur district and has no link to Bismil's birth anniversary event.
• C) Rampur: A former princely state. It has no connection to Bismil's life or this commemoration.
• D) Ballia: Known for the 1942 Quit India 'Bagi' movement and the parallel government led by Chittu Pandey. Bismil is not tied to Ballia.

The core concept is the Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav as a national commemoration programme, and the question tests whether you can link revolutionaries to their home districts. Bismil was a key figure in the HRA and the Kakori conspiracy of 1925, and he was hanged at Gorakhpur jail on 19 December 1927. That link to Gorakhpur is what makes the question tricky.

Trap: Aspirants pick Chauri Chaura because Bismil was hanged in Gorakhpur and Chauri Chaura is also in Gorakhpur district. Birthplace and place of death are different things, and the question asks where the commemoration was held.
