The Champaran Movement became a symbol of Indian independence in Indigo. Gandhi agreed to a 25 percent refund for the farmers, explaining that "the real relief for them is to be free from fear." Mahatma Gandhi assisted Indian farmers in overcoming their fear of English landlords who used to exploit Champaran sharecroppers. As a result, Gandhi understood the value of bravery in fighting landlord exploitation.
In Deep Water, the author, William Douglas, tells us how a young boy, William Douglas, almost drowned in a swimming pool. In “Deep Water,” William Douglas discusses his fear of water and how he finally overcame it. He uses his own story to make us understand how difficult it is to overcome our childhood fears. This might have happened to anyone, and the writer uses his autobiographical part to explain the techniques for removing your childhood fear with the help of planned ways and strategies. These were difficult steps to take, but overcoming fear requires determination and perseverance.
