What is the correct sequence of the following events ? 1. Bardoli Satyagraha 2. Rajkot Satyagraha 3. Champaran Satyagrah 4. Nagpur Satyagraha Select the correct answer using the code given below.
Explanation
The correct chronological sequence of the mentioned Satyagrahas is Champaran (1917), Nagpur (1923), Bardoli (1928), and Rajkot (1939). The Champaran Satyagraha in 1917 was Mahatma Gandhi's first major movement in India against the indigo planters [4]. The Nagpur Satyagraha, also known as the Flag Satyagraha, occurred in 1923 as a protest against the British ban on unfurling the national flag [t10]. The Bardoli Satyagraha took place in 1928 in Gujarat, led by Vallabhbhai Patel against land-tax hikes [1][t2][t5]. Finally, the Rajkot Satyagraha occurred in 1938-1939 to demand democratic reforms in the princely state [t2]. Therefore, the sequence 3-4-1-2 (Champaran, Nagpur, Bardoli, Rajkot) is historically accurate.
