Correct answer: (D) Sri Aurobindo — Mirambika, based on free progress education, follows Sri Aurobindo, so he is the answer.
Explanation
★Mirambika, based on free progress education, follows Sri Aurobindo, so he is the answer.
★Free progress education lets the child grow at his own inner pace with minimal imposition from the teacher.
★This flows from Sri Aurobindo's integral vision, which trusts the learner's inner development.
★M. K. Gandhi is linked with basic education, or Nai Talim, centred on craft and self-reliance, not free progress.
★Vivekananda spoke of education as man-making, a related but different idea.
★John Dewey is tied to experiential and pragmatist education, so Mirambika belongs to Sri Aurobindo.
