Solution

The correct option is B Newspaper
Not being able to think of a name for passive resistance, Gandhi created a contest on the Indian Opinion, a newspaper he founded. The contest was to come up with the best name for passive resistance. Maganlal Gandhi, his cousin won the contest. This is how Satyagraha came into existence.
