Summary. Official key is (a) 3 4 1 2. Lajpat Rai’s The Story of My Deportation follows his 1907 Mandalay deportation. Tilak’s Gita Rahasya is the Mandalay Gita commentary. Banerjee’s A Nation in Making (1925) is the moderate memoir. Azad’s India Wins Freedom is the Partition-era account. Only (a) keeps that four-book map.
