Correct Answer: Vinoba Bhave


Solution : The correct answer is Vinoba Bhave .

Vinoba Bhave, a follower of Mahatma Gandhi, founded the Bhoodan Movement, also known as the Land Donation Movement, in April 1951. The campaign began impromptu during an evening gathering in a village in Andhra Pradesh, where landowners donated land to the landless. Over the following 20 years, the campaign gave rise to a law known as the Bhoodan Act, which gave the government authority over the distribution of land from the land bank.
