On 3rd March, Mahatma Gandhi commenced a fast in Mumbai (then Bombay) as a poignant act of resistance against the oppressive autocratic rule in India, embodying his philosophy of non-violent defiance.
His hunger strike was not merely a personal sacrifice but a clarion call to the nation, urging collective moral fortitude in the struggle for self-governance.
As the British administration grappled with mounting dissent, Gandhi’s fast became a symbol of the people's unwavering resolve against tyranny, reinforcing the ethos of satyagraha that would ultimately reshape India’s destiny.
