Read the case study given below and answer the questions (Q. $\displaystyle 33$ and $\displaystyle 34$) that follow :
Sophia Duleep Singh was the daughter of Maharaja Duleep Singh — the last Sikh emperor of Punjab. Sophia was a long-time supporter of the Women’s Suffrage movement (right to vote) and a leading campaigner for changing attitudes about women’s rights in Britain. However, she remains a little-known figure.
In $\displaystyle 1910$, she was part of a delegation of $\displaystyle 300$ suffragettes who marched towards the Parliament in London. The Prime Minister refused to meet the women and the demonstration turned violent as policemen and men in the crowd outside the building beat them. Many of the demonstrators were seriously injured and the day came to be called Black Friday in the UK. Sophia was among the $\displaystyle 119$ women who were arrested.
Sophia transcended her heritage to devote herself to battling injustice and inequality. Her main causes were the struggle for Indian Independence, the welfare of Indian soldiers in the First World War — and, above all, the fight for female suffrage. Princess Sophia supported Indians, particularly women, throughout her life.
‘Her causes were the struggle for Indian independence, the welfare of Indian soldiers in the First World War — and, above all, the fight for female suffrage.’ All of these attitudes were present within a broader attitude, i.e., the attitude against injustice and inequality. Explain the feature specified here.
