Answer 1

Explanation:

Gandhi himself had no knowledge of Champaran till he arrived here four months later with Shukla and hardly knew anything about indigo plantation. When he got off at Patna railway station from Calcutta, it was his first visit to the city and he stayed in Rajendra Prasad's home. The future President was out of town.

Answer 2

The place that Gandhiji never heard of was Champaran in north Bihar.

• Gandhi himself had no awareness of Champaran till he arrived there four months later with Shukla and barely recognized anything about the indigo plantation. When he got off at Patna railway station from Calcutta, it was his initial visit to the city and he kept up in Rajendra Prasad's residence.
• Champaran which is located in north Bihar and borders Nepal on one side and eastern Uttar Pradesh on the other is one geographical region that Gandhi himself conceded in his autobiography named "The Story of My Experiments with Truth" that he had never heard of, before visiting the place with Shukla.
