Answer:

Gandhi was taken out of the Court to Sabarmati jail as he got a sentence of simple imprisonment for six months, and thus the great trial finished. The struggle between the colonial state and the nationalists grew more intense and became a battle of words.

This is the answer I hope it helps you.

Explanation:

Gandhi matriculated at the age of 18. Soon after he went to London to study law. He was the first Modh Bania to go abroad. After joining the Inner Temple, Gandhi found that passing law examinations very easy. Reading notes on the texts only for a could of months, many passed the examinations. That easy course of reading notes did not appeal to Gandhi. He loathed deception. He chose to read the text-books in original and spent much money on them. He had to study hard for nine months to read the fat volumes on Common Law. He learnt Latin and read the Roman Law books in the original. The Barrister then when to known as " dinner barristers" because they had to keep 12 terms in about three years. That meant they had to attend at least 72 dinners. The students had to meet the expense of these costly dinners.

Gandhi was not used to such social gatherings and could not understand how eating dinners and drinking wine helped one to become a good barrister. Anyway, he had to attend dinners. He was a good vegetarian and a teetotaller. As he could not share all the dishes and did not drink, many law students were keen on having him as a partner.

These dinners and readings did not help Gandhi to overcome his shyness and nervousness. He wondered how to use the book learning in arguing a case. An English lawyer encouraged him and told him honestly and industry were enough to become a lawyer and to earn a modest living. Facts were 3\4 of the law, if he took care of the facts of a case, the law would take care of itself. He advised Gandhi to read books on history and general knowledge. Gandhi followed his advice.

For a short time, Gandhi made an effort to become a smart English gentleman. He tried to learn proper pronunciation and speech making to dance, to play the violin and to dress in the right fashion. He bought an expensive suit from the most fashionable shop and sported a double watch chain of gold. He wore top hats and ties. He also made friends with young ladies. Slowly he was drifting to a life of ease and luxury. Some months later, he realized how foolish he was, expensive habits. He had to come to England to study, not to ape the ways of an Englishman. Immediately he decided to change his style of living. He hired a cheap room and a stove and began to cook his breakfast and dinner himself. He lunched at cheap vegetarian restaurants and stopped spending money on conveyance. He walked eight to ten miles every day.

In due time, after 32 months stay in England, Gandhi was enrolled as a barrister. Two days later he sailed for India.

On reaching India, he rented a house in Bombay and hired a cook, He attended the High Court regularly, saw how cases were conducted and spent many hours in the Bar library. He read books on Indian Law.

His first case was a simple one. He was offered a fee of Rs. 30 for it. When the young inexperienced barrister of 22 stood up to argue, he lost his nerve. His head reeled and tongue got parched up. He left the court in shame. Thenceforth he did not take up any case in that court.

His expenses mounted up, his income was almost nil. He proved good at drafting memorials but that neither was a barrister's job nor did it fetch enough money. After six months' trial, Gandhi joined his brother and his family at Rajkot. His brother had high hopes in the success of his England-returned barrister brother. He was sorely disappointed. Gandhi felt miserable.

At Rajkot, another problem arose. As a rule, he had to pay commission to the vakils who brought him cases. Gandhi declined to do so, it appeared immoral to him to give a commission. His brother pleaded and Gandhi made a compromise. Gandhi was then earning about Rs. 300 per month. He was not happy in doing that work, nor with the practices of falsehood all around.

Luckily he got an offer from a rich Muslim merchant of South Africa. He was to get Rs. 1,575 all found and the first-class passage with return fare. He accepted the offer and sailed for the far-away continent. He had no idea about the conditions of living in South Africa. When the ship anchored at Zanzibar, he went to see how the court worked there. Questions relating to book-keeping he could not follow. the case for which he was going to South Africa was mainly about accounts. Gandhi bought a book on accounting and read it carefully.

On the third day of his arrival at Durban, Gandhi went to the court. The magistrate ordered him to take off his turban. Gandhi refused to obey him and left the court. From the time of his landing on the South African soil, he noticed how the Indians were ill-treated by the whites. He was labelled an unwelcome visitor and a "coolie barrister". He smarted under these insults.
