Jalianwala Bagh Martyrs: The Jallianwala Bagh martyrs gave no such slogan before the massacre. Therefore, this is not the correct option.

Shahid Bhagat Singh: Bhagat Singh was a socialist revolutionary whose violent acts during the Indian Independence movement, made him get executed at an age of 23 and made him a folk hero. He raised no such slogans, therefore, this is not the correct option.

Gandhiji during Quit India Movement: In a fiery speech, in 1942, during the Quit India Movement in an attempt to a final push to make the British quit India , Gandhiji raised the slogan “Do or die”. Therefore, this is the correct option.
