For years, India had been under complete control of Britain, and the people didn't like it. They made stupid rules, and they forced the Indian People to buy their goods instead of making their own like they used to. The Indians had very low wages, so they couldn't afford to buy the products either. The people wanted change, and this is where Gandhi comes in. He was a very charismatic leader that wanted change, but by using nov-violent, peaceful methods. The people liked his ideas, so he gained a big following. His way of rebelling was definitely justified, because eventually they got the changes they wanted, and he did it in a non violent way. Gandhi didn’t want to use violence, so he used civil disobedience, which was a way of rebelling
