Consider the following statements regarding the Champaran Satyagraha (1917) and Bihar's role in the freedom movement: 1. At the special request of Rajkumar Shukla, Mahatma Gandhi came to Champaran, where under the 'Tinkathia system', European indigo planters compelled farmers to compulsorily cultivate indigo on 3/20th of their total land, against which this Satyagraha became Gandhi's first successful civil experiment in India. 2. As a member of the Champaran Agrarian Committee, Mahatma Gandhi was nominated by the British government as a member of this commission, and based on its recommendations, the 'Champaran Agrarian Act, 1917' was passed, legally abolishing the Tinkathia system and returning a portion of the illegally extorted money to the farmers. 3. During the success of the Champaran Satyagraha, local prominent lawyers and leaders such as Brajkishore Prasad, Rajendra Prasad, Anugrah Narayan Sinha, Acharya Kripalani, and Madhulid provided significant cooperation alongside Mahatma Gandhi, laying a strong foundation for national politics in Bihar. 4. At the time of the advent of the Non-Cooperation Movement in 1921, the 'Bihar National College' was established in Bihar as an alternative educational institution for students, with Dr. Rajendra Prasad serving as its principal, and during this period, the newspaper 'The Motherland' was published from Sadaqat Ashram under the editorship of Mazharul Haque.
