Q1Under the leadership of which leaders was the Kheda Peasant Movement led?

A Gandhiji and Vallabhbhai Patel

B Vallabhbhai Patel and Vasudev Balwant Phadke

C Gandhiji and Vijay Singh Pathik

D Sitaram Das and Vijay Singh Pathik

Explanation

The Kheda Peasant Movement of 1918 was led by Mahatma Gandhi with major organisational support from Vallabhbhai Patel. The issue was remission of land revenue after crop failure in Kheda, Gujarat. Vasudev Balwant Phadke belonged to an earlier revolutionary tradition in Maharashtra, not this satyagraha. Vijay Singh Pathik is associated mainly with peasant mobilisation in Rajasthan, especially Bijolia, not Kheda. Sitaram Das does not represent the recognised leadership of the Kheda campaign, so the Gandhi-Patel pairing fits the movement.
