When Gandhi returned from South Africa, he heard about the case in Champaran that the British forced the poor peasants to grow indigo, and they had no other choice, and he was devastated, but he wasn't willing to do anything until he was chased and stalked by a man who was from Champaran and was sent to make Mahatma Gandhi aware of the crisis. Then, Mahatma Gandhi learned about the whole situation and planned to take action. That is how Gandhi minimized the production of indigo in Champaran.
the champaran episode was a turning point in gandhi`s life. gandhi himself accepts it. it was the first mass movement in India.gandhi took up the cause of the poor peasants. he fought against the injustice of the cruel landlords. they extorted money from the poor sharecroppers. but champaran didn`t begin as an act of defiance. the movement grew out of gandhi `s attempt to remove the distress of poor peasants. it was a typical gandhian movement. the success of champaran marked the first victory of the civil disobedience in modern India. the amount of the refund money was less important. more important was that English landlords were forced to surrender part of the money. previously they behaved as lords above the law. now the Indian peasants had people to defend their rights. above all,the champaran episode was the beginning of their liberation from fear of the british.

Mahatma Gandhi used the method of non-violence.Like other great men in history, Gandhi took his time to grow and develop his techniques to ensure that his actions made an impact. His faith in different religions was commendable. His listened to the teachings of Christianity with the same belief and faith he read the Hindu scriptures with. He was brutally honest and truthful and this helped him throughout his life. Some of the major movements and freedom struggles led by him are discussed below.Non Co-operation MovementOne of the first series of non violent protests nationwide was the non cooperation movement started by Mahatma Gandhi. This movement officially started the Gandhian era in India. In this freedom struggle, the non cooperation movement was basically aimed at making the Indians aware of the fact that the British government can be opposed and if done actively, it will keep a check on them. Thus, educational institutions were boycotted, foreign goods were boycotted, and people let go off their nominated seats in government institutions. Though the movement failed, Indians awakened to the concept of going against the British.Civil Disobedience MovementGandhi again took off with another non violent movement known as the civil disobedience movement. This movement was more active than the non cooperation movement and brought about a revolution of sorts. This movement aimed at bringing the British administration to a stop by withdrawing support from everything. There was agitation against land revenue, abolition of salt tax, cutting down military expenditure, levying duty on foreign cloth, etc. A very important movement was that of Salt Satyagraha where Gandhi undertook the Dandi march as a protest against the Salt tax.Quit India MovementThe Quit India Movement was launched under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi in August 1942. The main aim for launching this movement was to bring the British to negotiate with the Indian leaders. It was a call for immediate independence of India and the slogan of "Do or Die" was adopted for the same. However the leaders were arrested soon after Gandhi's speech and were put in jail by British officials. Gandhi went on a fast for 21 days demanding the release of the leaders despite his failing health. The British had to secure the release of the leaders.India IndependenceAfter the Quit India Movement the freedom struggle got even more intense and passionate. Entire India was united together in the movement for freedom. Everyone contributed what they could in the freedom struggle. The cry of Purna Swaraj or complete independence was raised. After much sacrifices and efforts, India gained its independence on the 15th August, 1947.

It is my view that Mahatma Gandhi is Hindu political and spritual leader in Indian movement of independence. The reasons are: 1. He wrote a lot many books on platform of Shrimad Bhagwad Gita and others. 2. He also conveyed message of "Vaishnava Jan to ene kahiye je, pir parai jaane re". This message is self explanatory of Hindu Culture. 3. Last and the formost thing is only a spritually high level man could have lead India to independence with great courage and leadership. And he was......MAHATMA.
because he was like the martin Luther king of India More like Mahatma Ghandi was the pattern from which Martin Luther King Jr drew.
Starting from the ancient India there have been many dalit leaders or you can call them saints. Basically it is a movement with different phases and different leaders. Ravidas, phule, mahatma phule, and many more Dr. Ambedkar was the first true Dalit leader, in a sense that Dalit realised a platforum, a person was speaking for them as a whole.
