To find the correct chronological order of the given social movements, we need to determine the approximate time period when each movement was launched or gained prominence.
The Satyashodhak Samaj (Truth-Seekers' Society) was founded by Jyotirao Phule in 1873 in Pune, Maharashtra. Its primary objective was to fight against caste discrimination and promote social equality for the lower castes and women.
The Bardoli Satyagraha was a major peasant revolt in the Bardoli taluk of Gujarat. It took place in 1928 and was led by Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. This movement protested against excessive land revenue demands by the British government.
The Chipko Movement is a forest conservation movement that emerged in the Garhwal Himalayas (now in Uttarakhand). While it has earlier roots, its significant phase began in 1973, famously involving villagers hugging trees to prevent them from being cut down. It became a symbol of non-violent environmental activism.
