Explanation

1. Barindra Kumar Ghosh was a key figure in the early revolutionary movement in Bengal, associated with the Anushilan Samiti and the Jugantar group. He was involved in the Alipore Bomb Case. He was not directly associated with the Ghadar Party, which operated primarily from North America. 2. Jogesh Chandra Chatterjee was a prominent revolutionary associated with the Anushilan Samiti and later a founding member of the Hindustan Republican Association (HRA). He was involved in the Kakori Conspiracy. His activities were mainly within India, and he was not associated with the Ghadar Party. 3. Rash Behari Bose was a major Indian revolutionary leader. After his involvement in the Delhi Conspiracy Case (attempt on Viceroy Hardinge) and the planned Ghadar Mutiny within India in 1915, he escaped to Japan. In Japan, he continued his revolutionary activities, worked with Indian expatriates including those linked to the Ghadar Party network, and played a crucial role in organizing the Indian Independence League and paving the way for the Indian National Army (INA). His activities abroad actively connected him with the broader Ghadar movement's network and objectives. Thus, he was actively associated with the Ghadar Party's sphere of influence and activities. 4. Therefore, only Rash Behari Bose among the given options was actively associated with the Ghadar Party.
