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.

1 Why do you think Gandhi considered the Champaran episode to be a turning-point in his life?

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.

Hindu political and spiritual leader in the Indian movement of independence?

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.
