In Anandamath of Bankim Chandra Chatterjee, which revolt is mentioned?
Detailed Explanation:
Anandamath (1882) by Bankim Chandra Chatterjee is based on the Sannyasi Rebellion (1770s) in Bengal, where wandering monks (sannyasis) and fakirs revolted against British colonial oppression and local zamindars during the devastating famine.
The novel introduced Vande Mataram, India's national song, and romanticized the sannyasis' armed resistance as a patriotic struggle, making it a seminal work in Indian nationalist literature.
Therefore, the Sannyasi revolt is mentioned in Anandamath, making Option 1 the correct answer.
