IBPS SO Prelims Exam Model Paper 9

It is true that Bhagat Singh was an Indian nationalist who was hanged on the orders of the British Government in March 1931, so A is true. It is also true that he was an Indian, so R is true but R is not the correct explanation for A. He was not hanged because he was an Indian; he was hanged because he was found guilty of exploding two bombs inside the Central Legislative Assembly in Delhi. Hence, it can be said that both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A and option 2 is the right answer.
