Q1: How did Gandhi use satyagraha and non-violence at Champaran to achieve his goal?

Answer: The Champaran episode was a landmark in Gandhian style of fighting against the British rule. It was a long drawn but patient and peaceful agitation. The Champaran campaign was an attempt to free poor peasants of Champaran from injustice and exploitation at the hands of Britishers. Gandhi adopted a legal, moral and democratic path of negotiation. He appealed to the concerned authorities but they ignored his's plea.

Gandhiji gave moral courage to peasants and asked them need not fear. He made the peasants aware of their rights and gave them the confidence to fight their own battles. His disobedience movement along with the peasants forced landlords to agree to pay 25% amount due. Finally, his efforts paid off and emancipated the peasants from the clutches of landlords.


Q2: Why was Gandhiji impressed with Rajkumar Shukla's tenacity and determination?

Answer: Gandhiji impressed with Rajkumar Shukla's tenacity and determination because of his style of working and especially his dedication to accomplish his tasks. During the annual convention of Indian National Congress held in Lucknow, he met the poor peasants of Champaran. Rajkumar Shukla accompanied Gandhiji everywhere, even to his ashram and persuaded him to visit Champaran to resolve the peasants' grieves. This firmness and determination impressed Gandhiji and he finally agreed to visit Champaran.
