Answer: (C) Mahatma Gandhi
'Hind Swaraj' (Indian Home Rule) was written by Mahatma Gandhi in 1909, originally in Gujarati, during his voyage from London to South Africa. It articulates Gandhi's philosophy of non-violent resistance and critiques modern industrial civilisation as destructive to Indian culture. The British government banned it in India in 1910.
