Answer 1

Hint: We have to arrange the sentence into a meaningful statement from the given parts.

Complete answer:
We have to arrange the statements in such a manner so that the one connects with the other giving meaning to the sentence.
So, the sentence starts with (i) ‘. India's message has always been one of love and peace.’ It is followed by (iii) – ‘It has been a source of light and wisdom to the rest of the world’ after this which joins the statement further is the (ii) stating ‘our Buddha was the light of Asia’ after this comes (iv) – ‘Ashoka, moved by the horrors of Kalinga War, adopted the message of non-violence’ and this is further continued by sentence (v) – ‘the greatest apostle of non-violence in recent years was Mahatma Gandhi’ and the last is (vi) –‘ he shook the foundation of the British rule in India through non-violence.’ and this completes the sentence.
So the sentence is – ‘ India's message has always been one of love and peace. It has been a source of light and wisdom to the rest of the world our Buddha was the light of Asia. Ashoka, moved by the horrors of the Kalinga War, adopted the message of non-violence the greatest apostle of non-violence in recent years was Mahatma Gandhi, he shook the foundation of the British rule in India through non-violence.’

Note:
Here the sentence means that India has always been spreading the message of love and peace. It is a source of light and wisdom to the rest of the world and our Buddha was the light of Asia. By the horrors of the Kalinga war, Ashoka adopted the message of non – violence the greatest apostle of non – violence in recent years was Mahatma Gandhi as he shook the foundation of British rule in India by the help of non- violence.
