Question from BPSC PT 71, 2025

Correct Answer: c) Indian Government and Gandhiji

Explanation:
– During the 1917 Champaran Satyagraha, Gandhiji demanded an official inquiry into the grievances of indigo cultivators.
– The colonial (Indian) Government reached an understanding with Gandhiji to appoint the Champaran Agrarian (Enquiry) Committee, with Gandhi himself as a member.
– Raj Kumar Shukla brought Gandhi to Champaran, and leaders like Rajendra Prasad and Anugrah Narayan supported the movement, but the formal agreement to set up the committee was between the Government and Gandhiji.
– The committee’s recommendations led to the abolition of the oppressive tinkathia system and the Champaran Agrarian Act (1918).
