Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option B

Durga Thapa

Solution :

The correct option is Durga Thapa.

Explanation:
The provided black-and-white photograph shows a young woman wearing a light-colored outfit, positioned in the center, triumphantly raising both of her hands high in the air with an expression of passionate chanting or shouting. She is surrounded by a dense, massive crowd of people, and a flag is partially visible in the bottom-left section of the frame.
This iconic image captures Durga Thapa, who became one of the most famous symbols of the 1990 People's Movement (Jana Andolan I) in Nepal. Her posture of defiance and victory amidst the crowd during the pro-democracy protests against the Panchayat regime is widely celebrated in Nepali history. Therefore, the activist pictured is Durga Thapa.
