The correct answer is Champaran .
Gandhiji launched his mission of freeing bonded labour from Champaran, Bihar. The Champaran Satyagraha of 1917 was launched by Gandhi to address the issues faced by the indigo farmers who were forced to cultivate indigo by the British planters and were subjected to harsh and exploitative working conditions. During his stay in Champaran, Gandhi also came across the issue of bonded labour, where farmers were forced to work for landlords under inhumane conditions to repay their debts. He launched a campaign to free these bonded labourers, which marked the beginning of his efforts to eradicate the practice of bonded labour in India. Through his efforts, many bonded labourers were freed from their debt and the practice was eventually abolished in India in 1976.
