(d) to avenge the death of Lala Lajpat Rai

Ans: (a) to protest against the passage of the Public Safety Bill

Explanation: Bhagat Singh and B K Dutt threw a bomb in the central legislative assembly (a) to protest against the passage of the Public Safety Bill.

On April 8, 1929, Bhagat Singh and B K Dutt carried out a dramatic protest in the Central Legislative Assembly (now the Parliament House) in Delhi. They threw a non-lethal smoke bomb from the visitor’s gallery onto the floor of the assembly. This action was a symbolic act of protest against the passage of the Public Safety Bill and the Trade Disputes Bill, both of which were seen as repressive measures by the British colonial government.

The intention behind this act was to draw attention to the injustices and suppressive policies of the British government and to protest against the Public Safety Bill, which aimed to further restrict civil liberties and suppress political dissent. Bhagat Singh and his associates believed in using revolutionary means to challenge British rule and bring attention to the cause of Indian independence.

It is important to note that Bhagat Singh’s actions were primarily motivated by his revolutionary ideals and his desire to fight for the liberation of India from colonial rule. While avenging the death of Lala Lajpat Rai was one of Bhagat Singh’s motivations, the specific act of throwing the bomb in the central legislative assembly was targeted at protesting against the Public Safety Bill.
