View question detailsIn the Bhoodan Movement land was asked for whom?
Correct answer: A
The Bhoodan Movement sought land for people who had little or no land of their own. Through voluntary donations by landowners, the movement aimed to reduce rural inequality and help landless families obtain an opportunity to cultivate land. It was associated with Vinoba Bhave and emphasized persuasion, social responsibility, and peaceful redistribution rather than violence or compulsory confiscation.
Option A is correct because helping landless people was the central social purpose of the movement. British officials, princely rulers, and foreign traders were not the intended beneficiaries of Bhoodan. The name and programme both point toward land: landowners were encouraged to share land with those who lacked it. Thus the supplied answer correctly identifies the group for whom land was requested.
