• It was Gandhiji who had made the independence struggle a mass movement or rather a movement of the people. At the time of Gandhiji’s return from South Africa in 1915, participation in the independence struggle was limited. Only the upper strata of the society took part. Because the vast majority was illiterate and the media was not strong ie no television, radios were rare and newspapers couldn't help the illiterate. Gandhiji traveled throughout India and mobilized masses. He could understand the language of the common man. The common man saw the spirit and soul of India in him.
