Result
Your answer:  ·  Correct: C
Explanation

The chronological sequence of the events is as follows: 1. Champaran Satyagraha (1917), which was Gandhi's first major movement in India to support indigo peasants [c1, t2]. 2. Ahmedabad Mill Workers Strike (March 1918), where Gandhi intervened in a labor dispute and undertook his first hunger strike [c2, c4, t2]. 3. Chauri-Chaura Incident (February 1922), a violent event in Gorakhpur that led to the withdrawal of the Non-Cooperation Movement [c5, t1]. 4. Bardoli Satyagraha (1928), a peasant movement in Gujarat against tax hikes, led by Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel with Gandhi's support [c1]. Therefore, the correct order is 1-3-4-2. This sequence reflects the evolution of the Indian freedom struggle from early localized satyagrahas to mass movements and subsequent peasant mobilizations in the late 1920s.
