The Kheda Satyagraha was a nonviolent civil disobedience movement led by Mahatma Gandhi in the Kheda district of Gujarat in 1918. The movement aimed to support the demands of the local farmers who were facing severe economic hardship due to widespread crop failure caused by drought and famine. They appealed to the British government to waive the land revenue for that year, as they were unable to pay. Gandhi, along with Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and other leaders, organized the farmers to peacefully resist the tax collection, ultimately leading to some concessions from the government.
