Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: C
Explanation

The chronological order of the movements is determined by their respective launch dates. The Satyashodhak Samaj (Truth Seekers' Society) was founded by Jyotirao Phule on September 24, 1873, in Maharashtra to challenge brahminical supremacy and advocate for the rights of lower castes [4]. The Bardoli Satyagraha, a significant peasant movement against land revenue enhancement in Gujarat, was led by Vallabhbhai Patel in 1928 [4]. Finally, the modern Chipko Movement, a social-ecological movement involving the non-violent act of hugging trees to prevent deforestation, emerged in the early 1970s (specifically 1973) in the Garhwal Himalayas of Uttarakhand [5]. Therefore, the correct sequence is Satyashodhak Samaj (1873), followed by Bardoli Satyagraha (1928), and then the Chipko Movement (1973), corresponding to the order 3, 2, 1.
