After arriving in India in 1915, Gandhiji successfully organised Satyagraha (which he had applied in South Africa), in various parts of India.
The idea of Satyagraha consists of
(i) The idea of Satyagraha emphasised the power of truth and the need to search for truth.
(ii) This idea suggested that if the cause was true, if the struggle was against injustice, then physical force was not necessary to fight the oppressor. Without being aggressive, the Satyagrahi could win the battle.
(iii) This could be achieved by appealing to the conscience of the oppressor.
(iv) By this struggle, truth was bound to triumph ultimately. Gandhiji believed that this dharma of non-violence could unite all Indians.

Satyagraha Sanskrit: सत्याग्रह; satya: "truth", graha: "insistence" or "holding firmly to") or holding onto truth[1] or truth force – is a particular form of nonviolent resistance or civil resistance. The term satyagraha was coined and developed by Mahatma Gandhi(1869–1948).[2] He deployed satyagraha in the Indian independence movement and also during his earlier struggles in South Africa for Indian rights. Satyagraha theory influenced Martin Luther King Jr.'s and James Bevel's campaigns during the Civil Rights Movementin the United States, and many other social justice and similar movements.[3][4] Someone who practices satyagraha is a satyagrahi.
