Answer:

B. Rowlatt Satyagraha

Read Explanation:

  • The Movements conceived by Gandhiji like Champaran Peasant Movement (1917), Ahmedabad Mill Workers Movement (1918), Kheda Peasant Movement (1918) were limited to the specific issue of a particular section of the society.

  • But Rowlatt Satyagraha (1919) against the censure of freedom of press and detention without trial was proactively joined by all the sections of the society.

  • Sentiments of the aggrieved common people were addressed. Knitting of people from all religions, all castes, all age groups, and both the genders in the Nationalist Movement had a distinguished characteristic of the Rowlatt Satyagraha.

  • National newspapers, political journals, etc. made Gandhi a popular figure. This was the first all India level Movement launched by Mahatma Gandhi.
