Solution
The correct option is B Ahmadabad In 1918 along with Kheda movement Gandhi also took part in another movement. It was known as Ahmadabad Satyagraha. Gandhiji led the mill-workers in Ahmadabad in a strike against the mill-owners who had refused to pay them higher wages. When the workers seemed to weaken, he provided support to them by undertaking a fast. Afraid of the consequences, the mill-owners agreed on the fourth day of the fast to give a 35% increase in wages.
