Eka Movement and Bardoli Satyagraha

The correct answer is (c). The Bardoli Satyagraha (1928) in Gujarat was organized by Vallabhbhai Patel as a non-violent tax strike against an arbitrary 22% increase in land revenue imposed by the colonial government. The Eka Movement (Unity Movement, 1921) in northern Awadh was a radical protest by tenants and small peasants against high rental extractions (nazrana) levied by local taluqdars. Option (a) is incorrect because Congress leadership distanced itself from the Eka Movement due to its radical tactics. Option (b) is incorrect because the taluqdars were the targets of the Eka agitation, not its leaders. Option (d) is geographically incorrect as Eka occurred in Hardoi and Sitapur, while Bardoli is in Surat district.
