  • Q #3: Mahatma Ghandi was an inspirational leader who made a lot of sacrifices for the people of India. In 1921, Gandhi took charge of the Indian National Congress, a group of thirteen men in the Indian government who fought discrimination and unfair taxation against farmers and urban laborers. Using the nonviolent tactic of civil disobedience, Gandhi and his followers bravely resisted British control over Indian life, choosing not to follow unfair, discriminatory laws and policies. The British were not happy to see Ghandi and his followers rebelling in this way. The British responded to this resistance by strengthening their military presence in India, often at the cost of human lives. While Ghandi was fighting to gain more freedom for the people of India, the British government was, often violently, suppressing it. For his effort, Gandhi was eventually imprisoned in 1942 for his "radical" beliefs, but he refused to recognize violence as a means of fighting the British. He gained international attention for his hunger strikes, refusing to eat until the British changed their unjust policies.   Which of the following is a logical conclusion based on the passage?

    A. Gandhi was brave, but ultimately unsuccessful in his pursuits

    B. the British changed their unjust policies

    C. in Gandhi's mind, civil disobedience means only using violence as a last resort

    D. Gandhi's followers were fiercely loyal and stood by their leader at all times

    Answer Explanation
