Answer:

Option C: Bardoli

Detailed Solution:

The correct answer is “Bardoli ”.

The Bardoli Satyagraha was not led by Mahatma Gandhi, but instead by Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. The Bardoli Satyagraha was a revolt and civil disobedience movement that began in June 1928 in Bardoli, Gujarat.

The peasants of Bardoli protested against the British government's proposal to increase land revenue by 30% and taxes on farmers by 22%. The movement's success helped Patel become a leader of the Indian independence movement.
