Explanation
Rowlatt Satyagraha (1919) was Gandhi's first venture into all-India politics.
- Champaran (1917), Kheda (1918), and Ahmedabad (1918) were regional or localized struggles addressing specific grievances of peasants and workers in limited areas.
- The Rowlatt Satyagraha was a nationwide protest against the repressive Rowlatt Act. Gandhi organized a Satyagraha Sabha and called for an all-India Hartal (strike) on April 6, 1919, marking his transition from a regional leader to a national political figure.
- The Non-Cooperation Movement (1920) was a subsequent, larger mass movement, but it was not the first.
