Effect of satayagraha movement
  • 1 answers

Yogita Ingle 6 years, 9 months ago

  • Gandhi's concept of Satyagraha is an integrated concept and includes truth, non-violence, non-stealing, chastity or Brahmacharya, poverty or non-possession, bread labour, fearlessness, control of the palate [Asvada], tolerance, Swadeshi and removal of untouchability.
  • According to Gandhi, Satyagraha can be adopted by anybody. He said that Satyagraha was like a banyan tree, which had innumerable branches.
  • Truth-Satya and non- violence-Ahimsa together made its parent trunk from which all the innumerable branches shoot out.
  • Satyagraha has also been considered as a weapon of soul force to resist any kind of oppression. While Gandhi regarded Satyagraha as a way of life, during the freedom struggle of India, Satyagraha was used as a weapon to resist the authority of the state and to achieve various things for the general welfare of the people.
  • Gandhi and his chief lieutenant Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel had conducted the Satyagrahas at Champaran and Bardoli not only to achieve material gains for the people, but also to resist the unjust authority of the then British regime.
  • The Civil Disobedience Movement of 1930, which was started with the breaking of the Salt Law at Dandi, and the Quit India Movements were classic examples when Gandhi and his colleagues used Satyagraha as a weapon of the soul force.
  • Satyagraha as a means of resistance and conflict resolution has different forms.
  • Hunger strike [fasting], Hartal [striking work], hijrat [immigration] etc. are some of the forms suggested.
