Explanation
The Bakasht Land Movement in Bihar was led by Karyanand Sharma and Swami Sahajanand Saraswati to restore land rights to tenants [3]. The Eka Movement (1921), which emerged in northern Awadh, was led by Madari Pasi and other low-caste leaders who focused on issues like high rents and forced labor [3]. The Mappila Rebellion (1921) in the Malabar region involved Muslim tenants and was led by figures such as Kunhammed Haji against oppressive Hindu landlords and British authorities [3]. The Avadh Kisan Sabha Movement was significantly organized by Baba Ramchandra, who mobilized peasants in Uttar Pradesh and later collaborated with Jawaharlal Nehru to address grievances like bedakhali (eviction) [3]. Matching these pairs (A-4, B-3, C-2, D-1) confirms that Option 1 is the correct sequence.
