In which state was the 'Beej BachaoAndolan' (Save the Seed Movement) started in the 1980s?
Answer: A
The movement began in Uttarakhand.
Beej Bachao Andolan was started in the Tehri Garhwal region of what is now Uttarakhand in the 1980s by farmers led by Vijay Jardhari to save traditional seeds.
Rajasthan, Kerala and Mizoram are known for other movements, not for this one.
The movement began in the Jardhar village area of Tehri Garhwal and was led by the farmer and Chipko activist Vijay Jardhari. It aimed at saving traditional crop varieties and promoting mixed farming. It is therefore tied to Uttarakhand and not to the other states.
