Answer 2

Viakom Satyagraha.

Explanation:

• Began on March 30, 1924, the Vaikom Satyagrah was a movement for temple entry for the lower classes. This movement took place near the Shiva Temple at Vaikom.
• The caste system prevalent in Indian society banned the low caste Hindus to enter into the temples. Moreover, in Kerala, the low-caste Hindus were not even allowed to walk on the roads that led to the temples.
• Therefore, the Satyagrahis during the movement entered the temple in the batches of three. The movement was supported by Gandhiji, Chatampi Swamikal and Sree Narayana Guru.
• Soon the movement gained prominence throughout India. As a result of this widespread movement, the temple opened its gates for Hindus on 23rd November 1925.
