- A2, 1, 3
- B3, 1, 2
- C3, 2, 1

Explanation
The Satyashodhak Samaj was founded by Jyotirao Phule in 1873, the Bardoli Satyagraha led by Vallabhbhai Patel took place in 1928, and the Chipko Movement began in 1973 in present-day Uttarakhand. The correct chronological order is therefore 3, 2, 1. These three movements span a century of Indian social and political mobilisation, from 1873 to 1973.
