Consider the following historical events : 1. Gandhi-Irwin Pact 2. Second Round Table Conference 3. Peasant Movement in Bardoli 4. Peasant Movement in Kheda Which one of the following is the correct chronological order (starting from the earliest) of the above events?

The chronological sequence of the events is as follows: The Peasant Movement in Kheda occurred in 1918, led by Mahatma Gandhi to support farmers unable to pay revenue due to crop failure and plague [1]. This was followed by the Peasant Movement in Bardoli in 1928, led by Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel against land revenue hikes [1][2]. Moving into the 1930s, the Gandhi-Irwin Pact was signed on March 5, 1931, which served as a truce to end the Civil Disobedience Movement [1]. This pact paved the way for the Second Round Table Conference, which took place later that year in December 1931 in London [1]. Therefore, the correct order is Kheda (1918), Bardoli (1928), Gandhi-Irwin Pact (March 1931), and the Second Round Table Conference (December 1931), corresponding to the sequence 4-3-1-2.
