The proper sequence should be:

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

QSRP

The first statement in the sequence should be the one that best connects with S1. It should be a continuation or extension of S1.

Q is first in the sequence: S1 starts by telling us about Jagdish Chandra Bose. It says that Bose was born on November 30, 1853 at Parikhal, now in Bangladesh. Q adds to S1. It says that Bose's father, Babu Bhagwandas, was a remarkable man.

Q is followed by S: S continues to say that although he was an important government official, yet he did not give up his independence of thought.

S is followed by R: R adds a point to the topic. It says that he had a high regard for India's ancient culture.

R is followed by P: P continues R's point. It says even though he had a high regard for ancient culture, he knew that without technical education India could not become a great nation. S6 concludes that as a result he himself founded some technical and industrial schools.

Thus, the correct sequence is Q S R P. Hence, C is the correct option.
