B.
In Sabarmati Ashram
C.
Travelling from England to South Africa by ship
D.
During Champaran Satyagraha

Solution:

The correct answer is Travelling from England to South Africa by ship. Important PointsGandhi wrote Hind Swaraj in 1908 during his return visit to South Africa from India via London by ship. He completed writing in ten days, and that too with his left hand when the right hand started paining. This book prescribes how India can secure political freedom and more importantly, how humans can rise above the animal to become a world of peace. The thought written in South Africa in the midst of a struggle to secure the basic human rights of Indians living there is more relevant today than ever before. Hind Swaraj was written in the midst of passive resistance, as Satyagraha was then to secure the basic human rights of the people of Indian origin living In South Africa. The book first appeared in installment in Indian Opinion, and then came in a book form (in Gujarati) in 1909. It was proscribed at once by the Government of Bombay. Following the Upanishad tradition, he cast the book in the form of a dialogue between himself the 'The Editor', and an interlocutor 'The Reader'.
