A1, 2, 3 and 4
B1, 2 and 3
C3 and 4
D1 and 2

Explanation

Sister R.S. Subbalakshmi worked for women's education in Madras, Begum Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain founded schools for Muslim girls in Bengal, and Keshub Chandra Sen campaigned for women's education through the Brahmo movement. Ananda Coomaraswamy was an art historian and philosopher of Indian art, not a champion of women's education. Hence 1, 2 and 3 were the champions of women's education.
