Who among the following women activists convinced Mahatma Gandhi not to restrict the Salt Satyagraha Dandi March to men alone?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Option 1 -> Kamaladevi Chattopadhyay was a prominent freedom fighter and social reformer who actively advocated for women's participation in the independence movement.

Option 2 -> Binodini Dasi was a social worker but not prominently associated with convincing Gandhi regarding the Salt Satyagraha.

Option 3 -> Sarojini Naidu was a leading figure who participated in the movement but was not the one who initially convinced Gandhi about women's inclusion.

Option 4 -> Kamini Roy was a poet and women's rights activist but not connected to this specific event.


Hence, Kamaladevi Chattopadhyay -> She persuasively argued with Mahatma Gandhi that women should not be excluded from the historic Dandi March in 1930, leading to women's active participation in the Salt Satyagraha and breaking the traditional barriers in India's freedom struggle -> correct
