Satyagraha

Road to Freedom~I

In his speech to the students and teachers at Surat, Gandhi said, ‘the men and women who died in Jalianwalla Bagh were not martyrs and heroes‘. Finally, for General Dyer, the only punishment he recommended was stopping of his pension. Such love for the adversary, we were told, was the essence of Satyagraha.
