Answer 1

Answer:

In order to break the deadlock, Gandhiji agreed to 25 percent refund to the farmers. ... He wanted the poor farmers to realise that they too had rights and that they need not really live in fear of the British landlords. The conflict between the British planters and the peasants changed the plight of the peasants.

Explanation:

Gandhiji wanted every person, maybe of different career,to have equal rights.

Answer 2

To make the Britishers realise, that farmers also have a right, he granted a refund to the farmers.

• Gandhiji tacitly granted a pay back arrangement for the local farmers to release the substantial refund proportion from the halt between the land holders and the farmers.
• The sufficient amount of the refund was not significant to him, thus to break the deadlock, thus, he decided to grant the farmers a 25% refund.
• He wanted the poor farmers to know they also had freedom and that they didn't necessarily need to live in fright of British landlords.  
• The economic rivalry between the British planters and the peasants had subtly altered the peasants' plight.
