Answer 1

Answer:

Bhikaiji Rustom Cama was a noted Indian independence activist. Coming from an affluent Parsi family, Bhikaiji was drawn towards the nationalist cause at an early age. Exiled in Europe for years, she worked with prominent Indian leaders. She co-founded ‘Paris Indian Society’ and established literary works like ‘Madan’s Talwar’ and emerged as the first person to unfurl the Indian flag abroad, calling it the “Flag of Indian Independence” while attending the second Socialist Congress at Stuttgart, Germany.Madam Cama was born on September 24, 1861, in Bombay (now Mumbai) into the affluent Gujarati Parsi family of Sorabji Framji Patel and Jaijibai Sorabji Patel. Her father was a merchant and a prominent member of the Parsi community. Her parents were a well-known couple in the city. Just like several Parsi girls of her time, Bhikaiji too studied at the Alexandra Native Girls’ English Institution. As a child she was assiduous and disciplined and had an aptitude for languages. Growing up in an environment where the Indian nationalist movement was gradually gaining momentum, she got inspired by the cause that saw her arguing competently on the issue in different circles.

She married a rich pro-British lawyer Rustom Cama on August 3, 1885. Rustom was the son of Kharshedji Rustomji Cama (also referred as K. R. Cama) and wanted to get into politics. Bhikaiji’s association with socio-political issues was not taken well by her husband resulting in differences between the couple, which resulted into an unhappy marriage.
