At a time when the world thought that rights can only be gained through violence and war, Gandhiji proved it wrong and chased away the British rulers who wanted to hold the world in their hands without arming them. People like Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela who were attracted by his practices followed the path of non-violence and showed success. ‘Non-violence is not a weapon of the weak.’ The weak choose violence only the strong can walk the path of non-violence. It does not take strength to knock an enemy down; “Strength is needed to overcome any attack and stand up,” Gandhiji’s words are a thought worth pondering.
