● Organized mass protest
against humiliating ordinance
against Indian in
Johannesburg in September
1906 and, under Gandhi’s
leadership, took a pledge to
defy the ordinance if it
became law in the teeth of
their opposition and to suffer
all the penalties resulting
from their defiance. And so
Satyagraha was born.
while traveling to Pretoria, he
was unceremoniously thrown
out of a first-class railway
compartment.
Which changed him and his
way to protest(to
Nonviolence).

● With his book Hind Swaraj
(1909) Gandhi, aged 40,
declared that British rule was
established in India with the
cooperation of Indians and
had survived only because of
this co-operation. If Indians
refused to cooperate, British
rule would collapse and
swaraj would come.
● He emphasised the use of
non-violence to the British and
towards each other, even if the
other side uses violence
● Nonviolent Non-Cooperation
platform to include the
swadeshi policy – the boycott
of foreign-made goods,
especially British goods.
Linked to this was his
advocacy that khadi be worn
by all Indians instead of
British-made textiles.
Jallianwala Bagh
● To control freedom struggle
british passed infamous
Rowlatt Act(1919).
● On April 13, 1919 a people

resolution at the Calcutta
Congress in December 1928
calling on the British
government to grant India
dominion status.

mobilize countrymen.

the oppressive tax on salt.
● This was highlighted by the
famous Salt March to Dandi
from 12 March to 6 April,
where, together with 78
volunteers, he marched 388
kilometres (241 mi) from
Ahmedabad to Dandi, Gujarat
to make salt himself, with the
declared intention of breaking
the salt laws.
● The march took 25 days to
cover 240 miles with Gandhi
speaking to often huge crowds
along the way. Thousands of
Indians joined him in Dandi.
On 5 May he was interned
under a regulation dating from
1827 in anticipation of a
protest that he had planned.
The protest at Dharasana salt
works on 21 May went ahead
without its leader, Gandhi.

Bombay session of the All-India Congress Committee by Mahatma Gandhi on 8 August
1942, during World War II, demanding an end to British Rule of India.
● The Cripps Mission had failed, and on 8 August 1942, Gandhi made a call to Do or Die in his
Quit India speech delivered in Bombay at the Gowalia Tank Maidan.
