Answer:
Gandhiji came to know about the share croppers plight at Champaran. There the landlords forced the peasants to plant indige on 15% of the holdings and all the harvest was to be surrendered to the planters as rent. They were also signing contracts for the compensation under compulsion. Gandhi held a demonstration against the government. The officials became helpless and the government was helped. A settlement was reached. The share croppers got 25% of their money back. In this way Gandhiji helped the peasants of Champaran.
