...
 When they reached the sea, Gandhi picked up a lump of natural salt; this 
action defied the British salt monopoly which forbade the independent manufacture or sale of salt, punishable by at 
least three years in jail
...
 Gandhi did not resist his 
incarceration, an example ​
Ahimsa​

...
 Ultimately, he was arrested by 
British­appointed landlords for causing civil unrest
...
 On another occasion, he was assaulted by white settlers in Durban Harbor, 
South Africa, but was fortunately saved by a Durban Police Chief
...
 However, Gandhi refused to press charges

Gandhi was seated in the first­class compartment when a European man entered the compartment and ordered the

 Despite being forewarned that he would be removed from the

 In addition, Gandhi persuades the people into 
boycotting British products and instead manufacturing their own “home­spun” clothing to become self­reliant
...
 Once India 
became sovereign nation, tensions between Hindu and Muslim factions began to resurface and cause riots to break 
out

 In an attempt to facilitate peace by restoring Muslim homes, paying to Pakistan 
civilians, and creating a ceasefire, Gandhi (now 77 years old) beings another fast (​
