(I) and (II) are independent of each other

Explanation — Here both the Statements presents two historical event with Gandhi's leadership. Statement (I) refers to the Ahmedabad Mill Strike (1918), where Gandhi supported textile workers demanding a wage increase from mill owners, whereas Statement (II) refers to the Kheda Satyagraha (1918), where peasants sought relief from land revenue payments due to crop failure.
