gandhi's role in national movement for independence of india?

Question

gandhi's national movements in little detail- quit india movement, non violence movement and non co-operation movement
(according to board syllabus for class 10 icse)

Answer 1

Ghandi Ji experimented with political activism in South Africa as a Lawyer but the exclusion of people of co;our from full participation in the Court System there at the time made his actions to limited and too personally dangerous.

After returning to India he was active in rejection the Japanese assertion of Asia for Asians, and so encouraged Indians to help on the Western Front!

Having gained some noterity as an Activist and Advocate, Ghandi Ji became the voice of reason and centeral theorist on the effort to gain independence at a time when many , especially Muslums & Shiks, felt Militant Revolt was the only solution the British would understand.

Ghandi Ji felt that the crux to Government was cooperation and compliance. Thus having the clear majority in India, one could apply Non-Cooperation & Non-Compliance and force the local governance to atrophy out of relivence.

He also knew that tactially by insisting on Non-Violence the World, emerging out of the War would find the approach novel and beyond anything that had ever been seen before in the West. So mass appeal would be in effect if the News captioned Violence being inflicted by the Brits on peaceful protesters.

The first protests were in the simple form of marching to the sea to make salt rather than buying salt from the Brits, then wearing home spun clothes ffrom local khakiand thus avoiding the puhchase of anything that the brits could charge taxes ot make a profit on.

The the stress on the local Brits was more than they could bear and violence did happen. First in the form of billy clubbings and then a masacure in I think a Shrine Field.The United Nations community to be was appalled and change was inevitable.

Independence had one more hurtle though and that was the Muslems who upon reflection decided that being a minority was not in their interest given a democratic Hindii majority and so with much reluctance Ghandi tried his best to prevent Partition being a son that was raised in both religions but again was an important figure in trying to maintain the peace dispite may Riots that broke out during the seperation.

Ghandi was a great mind philosophically and his logic and reasoning were of a classic Eastern sensiblity not so easily found these days. Consider even his note on technology. Over sixty years ago he said that science in the right hands can be a wounderous thing, but that technology should never tend to atrophy the limbs of man!

Answer 2

His role was major and pivotal as to the point of Great Britain granting India her independence in 1947, which was also a chink in the armor of the collapse of the British empire where it was said, "the sun never slept"

Answer 3

Gandhi was a hero to the people of India. at least that's what they say. but i don't think he represents them because 1- he was educated in the university of Cambridge, 2- he was killed in India by Indian people. so they didn't really want him because he wasn't like the rest of them.
i know this isn't the answer to your question, i just wonder what people think of my opinion.
