The correct answer is (b) North America.
Explanation:
The Ghadar revolutionaries, also known as the Ghadar Party, were based in North America during the outbreak of World War I. The Ghadar Party was a revolutionary organization founded by Indian nationalists in 1913 with the aim of liberating India from British colonial rule.
Many Indian immigrants, primarily Punjabis, settled in countries like the United States and Canada. They formed the Ghadar Party and used these locations as bases to plan and organize revolutionary activities against British rule in India.
The Ghadar Party played a significant role in promoting anti-colonial sentiments, mobilizing support, and advocating for the independence of India. They published newspapers and literature that spread revolutionary ideas among Indians, both in India and abroad.
Therefore, the correct answer is (b) North America.
