Answer 1

i, ii, iii

Explanation:

Popular movements can be social or political, and the two frequently intersect. For instance, the nationalist movement was primarily a political one. However, we also know that during the colonial period, discourses on social and economic concerns spawned autonomous social movements such as the anti-caste movement, kisan sabhas, and the trade union movement, all of which emerged in the early twentieth century. These movements drew attention to societal issues.
