Solution

The correct option is C self-help
By 1921, Mahatma Gandhi designed the Swaraj flag. This was a tricolour flag. This flag had a spinning wheel in the centre of a red, green and white banner. The red stripe was for Hindus and the green was for Muslims. The white band represented peace and the rest of the communities living in India. The spinning wheel represented the Gandhian ideal of self-help. The Swaraj flag was carried around during the protest marches, and it became a symbol of defiance.
