The correct option is C Inland Emigration Act, 1859
In 1859, the Inland Emigration Act was passed by the colonial government. This act prevented plantation workers from leaving the tea garden without permission. During the Non-Cooperation Movement, they packed up their belongings and left for their homes. They believed that 'Gandhi Raj' would be established and everyone would be given their own lands.
