Abstract

During the time when India was under colonial authority in the 19th century, the most significant event that took place in India was the fight for freedom. The British monarchs were such tyrants that they placed many restrictions over Indians and destroyed the country of India. However, Gandhiji, who was a follower of honesty and non-violence, decided to stand against the unfair behaviour of British regime. The current paper is centered on the fight for democracy from the phenomenal British principle and the methods used by Gandhiji in the form of honesty and non-violence.
