Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
In 1917, Mahatma Gandhi inspired the first Satyagraha movement, which occurred in the Bihar district of Champaran. Even though the Champaran Satyagraha was the first, the phrase Satyagraha has been used since the Anti-Rowlatt Act agitation. Mahatma Gandhi led a peasant revolt in Bihar's Champaran district known as the Champaran Satyagraha. Farm owners in the region began to revolt against British rule over the imposed indigo cultivation between 1914 and 1916.
Thus the correct statement would be The Champaran Satyagraha was the first Satyagraha movement.
