When Mahatma Gandhi returned to India in January, 1915 he started a Satya-
graha movement in India in various places.
(i) Satyagraha comprised of two Sanskrit words Satya and agraha. Satya means
truth and agraha means path. Thus Satyagraha means following the path of
truth and non-violence to attain freedom and fight against injustice.
(ii) It is the philosophy of non-violent resistance adopted by Gandhiji to end the
British Raj in India.
(iii) The idea of Satyagraha emphasised the power of truth and need to search for
truth.
(iv) Satyagraha advocated that for true cause and struggle against injustice,
physical force is not required to fight with the oppressor.
(v) Without being aggressive, a satyagrahi could win battle through non-violence.
