Answer:
. Champaran Movement (1917)
The Champaran Movement in 1917 was the first Satyagraha movement inspired by Gandhi and a major revolt in the Indian Independence Movement. Farmers of Bihar were protesting against the farming of indigo with barely any payment for it. The farmers oppressed Mahatma Gandhi when he returned to India from Sout Africa in 1915. They wanted Mahatma Gandhi to use the same methods that he had used in South Africa to organize mass uprisings by people to protest against injustice.
Champaran Movement is the first popular movement which gave direction to India's youth and freedom fighters.
2. Kheda Movement (1918)
The Kheda Movement of 1918 was a major revolt in the Indian independence movement. The movement was started in the Kheda district of Gujarat by the Mahatma Gandhi during the period of the British Raj. People of Kheda were unable to pay the high taxes levied by the British due to crop failure and a plague epidemic.
Therefore, Mahatma Gandhi organised this movement to support the peasants of Kheda district.
It was the third Satyagraha movement led by Mahatma Gandhi after Champaran Satyagraha and Ahmedabad mill strike.
3. Khilafat Movement (1919)
The Khilafat Movement of 1919 is also known as the Indian Muslim movement (1919–24). The Ottoman Empire, having sided with the Central Powers during World War I, suffered a major military defeat. The Muslims were protesting for the safety of their Ottoman Caliphate. The Muslim Community launched the khilafat movement under the guidance of Mahatma Gandhi to fight against the British government to restore the collapsing status of the Caliph in Turkey.
The success of this movement made Mahatma Gandhi the national leader in no time. He became a notable spokesperson of the All India Muslim Conference.
