Correct Answer : Acharya Vinoba Bhave
Question Asked : SSC Junior Engineer (Civil) Exam 2018
Explanation : On October 17. 1940 Mahatma Gandhi had chosen Acharya Vinoba Bhave as the first satyagrahi to start personal satyagraha and Jawaharlal Nehru as the second. The British Colonial government had committed India into the Second World War without the consent of the Indian people. To oppose this decision by the foreign government, the Congress party decided to launch individual satyagraha. During his period in prison, Bhave, wrote major three books - Swaraj Shastra, Sthitpragya darshan and Isha Vasya Vrith.
