The primary issue of Champaran’s peasants revolved around the oppressive system imposed by British landlords, who forced them to grow indigo on a significant portion of their land. As described in the chapter Indigo from Class 12th, the farmers were compelled to sell this indigo at very low prices, leading to severe financial distress and exploitation. The peasants were burdened with exorbitant rents and faced dire consequences for failing to meet the landlords’ demands. This systemic exploitation sparked widespread unrest and ultimately led to the Champaran Movement, as the farmers sought justice and fair treatment from their oppressors.
The landlords forced peasants to grow indigo and surrender the entire crop as rent. Therefore option B is correct answer.
