Which peasant organization was founded by Swami Sahajanand Saraswati in 1929?

Bihar Provincial Kisan Sabha
All India Kisan Sabha
Bengal Provincial Ryots Association
Deccan Riots Commission

The correct answer is Bihar Provincial Kisan Sabha.

The Bihar Provincial Kisan Sabha was a peasant organization founded by Swami Sahajanand Saraswati in 1929. It was one of the first peasant organizations in India, and it played a major role in the peasant movements of the 1930s and 1940s. The Sabha was initially formed to address the grievances of the peasantry in Bihar, but it soon became a national organization with branches in many parts of India. The Sabha’s main demands were for higher wages, lower rents, and better working conditions for the peasants. It also campaigned against the zamindari system, which was a system of land tenure in which a small number of landlords owned most of the land and the peasants were tenants who had to pay high rents. The Sabha’s activities led to a number of strikes and protests, and it played a major role in the peasant uprisings of the 1930s and 1940s. The Sabha was disbanded in 1947, but it was revived in 1952 as the All India Kisan Sabha.

The other options are incorrect. The All India Kisan Sabha was founded in 1936, not 1929. The Bengal Provincial Ryots Association was founded in 1875, and the Deccan Riots Commission was a commission set up in 1875 to investigate the causes of the Deccan riots of 1875.
