Explanation:
The correct statement is 2 only. Key Points The British Indian Association was the first major voluntary organization in India founded in 1851 in Calcutta, representing primarily the local landlord interests. It was not mainly active in Bombay and western India, but rather in Calcutta. Hence, Statement 3 is incorrect. It was created after amalgamating the “Landholders Society” and “British India Society”. Unlike its predecessor the Landholders' Society that had many non-official Anglo-Indians among its members, the British Indian Association was exclusively Indian in its membership. Hence, statement 1 is incorrect and statement 2 is correct. It began to play a prominent role after the Indian Councils Act of 1861, which provided for limited Indian representation in the legislative councils. The President of the first committee of this organization was Raja Radhakanta Deb, while Debendranath Tagore was its secretary.
বাংলা সাহিত্য ও ব্যাকরণ হলো বাংলা ভাষার দুটি অবিচ্ছেদ্য অঙ্গ। বাংলা সাহিত্য হলো বাংলা ভাষায় রচিত কবিতা, উপন্যাস, নাটক, গল্পসহ সৃজনশীল ও মননশীল রচনার সমষ্টি, যার সূচনা দশম শতাব্দীতে 'চর্যাপদ' এর মাধ্যমে। অন্যদিকে, বাংলা ব্যাকরণ হলো এমন একটি শাস্ত্র বা বিজ্ঞান, যা বাংলা ভাষার গঠন, প্রকৃতি, ধ্বনি, শব্দ ও বাক্যের নিয়ম-কানুন বিশ্লেষণ করে ভাষার শুদ্ধ রূপ ও প্রয়োগ শেখায়।
