The correct answer is Bina Das .
Bina Das is the female revolutionary who fired at the English Governor while receiving her degree at the convocation. Bina Das was a member of the Chittagong armory raid group, which was led by Surya Sen, and was known for her role in the attack on the Bengal Governor, Stanley Jackson, in 1932. The incident took place at the convocation ceremony of the University of Calcutta, where the Governor was the Chancellor. Bina Das, who had smuggled a pistol into the ceremony, fired at the Governor but missed. She was later arrested and sentenced to nine years in prison for her role in the attack.
