Explanation

The Champaran Satyagraha of 1917 was led by Mahatma Gandhi with several local leaders and lawyers supporting the peasants. Contemporary accounts and standard histories list Anugrah Narayan Sinha among the key associates of Gandhi in Champaran [1], while Rajendra Prasad is repeatedly named as one of the principal organisers and legal aides who worked with Gandhi during the campaign. Primary descriptions of the movement therefore identify Rajendra Prasad and Anugrah Narayan Sinha as prominent collaborators with Gandhi in Champaran, matching option 3 [1].
