Solution

The correct option is A S1 & S2 are true and S2 is the explanation for S1.
After Russia’s defeat in the Crimean War in 1861, Tsar Alexander II liberated the serfs, but they were not given enough land. The angry peasants and the low waged employees became the major reason for the first revolution. The Tsar government tried to suppress revolutionary ideas which started spreading among intellectuals and students who further spread them to the peasants.
