Complete step by step answer:
Let us discuss all the given options step by step for better understanding:
A. Kesari: Kesari is a Marathi Journal that was founded by Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak, in the year 1881, he was a prominent leader of the Indian Independence movement. Bal Gangadhar Tilak used to run two newspapers one was Kesari and the other one was Mahratta.
B. Maharatta: The Maharatta, was the weekly English newspaper that was started by Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak in the year 1881.

D. Moplah Rebellion: The Moplah rebellion which is also called the Moplah Riots of 1921 which was launched by the Mappila Muslims of Kerala, against the British and the Hindu landlords in Malabar which is the northern Kerala region. The Moplah Rebellion was an armed revolt.
So, the correct answer is Option A.

Note: Reasons for Mappila revolt:
I. The anti-British sentiment which was fuelled by the agitations affected the Muslim Mappila
II. The trigger came from the non-cooperation Movement which was launched by the congress along with the Khilafat movement.
III. The British also introduced new tenancy laws that were a far more exploitative system for peasants than before.
