Result
Your answer:  ·  Correct: C

Explanation

To determine the earliest event, we must look at the chronological timeline of the Indian National Movement:

  • Partition of Bengal (1905): Announced by Lord Curzon, it aimed to divide the province on communal lines, sparking the Swadeshi Movement.
  • Champaran Satyagraha (1917): This was Mahatma Gandhi's first Satyagraha in India, launched to support indigo farmers against the tinkathia system.
  • Chauri Chaura Incident (1922): Occurring in Gorakhpur district, this violent clash led Gandhi to abruptly call off the Non-Cooperation Movement.
  • Dandi March (1930): Also known as the Salt Satyagraha, it marked the beginning of the Civil Disobedience Movement.

Comparing these dates, the Partition of Bengal is the earliest event among the given choices.
