{'gandhian movements': [0, 0, 1, 1], 'mahatma gandhi': [20, 5, 4, 18], 'mass movement': [0, 1, 2, 0], 'passive resistance': [1, 0, 0, 0]}

The correct answer is option 3: "In Gandhian movements, leadership had no role." This statement is not correct. In Gandhian movements, leadership played a crucial role. Mahatma Gandhi himself was a prominent leader and played a central role in organizing and leading various movements throughout his lifetime.

Gandhi believed in the power of individuals and their ability to bring about change through non-violent means. He emphasized the importance of leadership and guidance in the pursuit of social and political transformation. Gandhi`s leadership was characterized by his principles of truth, non-violence, and self-sacrifice.

Leadership was vital in mobilizing and organizing mass movements, such as the Salt March, Quit India Movement, and Civil Disobedience Movement. Gandhi`s leadership inspired and motivated people to participate in these movements and actively contribute to the larger cause.

Therefore, option 3 is the incorrect statement as it wrongly suggests the absence of leadership in Gandhian movements.
