Solution

The correct option is D A is false but R is true
Lala Lajpat Rai succumbed to injuries suffered during the lathi charge in Lahore. When the news reached young revolutionaries like Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, and Rajguru, they decided to kill the police chief responsible for the end of Lala Lajpat Rai. However, they ended up killing the Assistant Superintendent of Police, John Saunders, on 17 December 1927, instead of James Scott.
