Modern Indian History 1905-1920

For which of the following purposes was the Passive Resistance Association formed by Gandhiji?

To raise awareness about the passive resistance methods among Indian masses before participating in mainstream Indian politics.

To conduct a Satyagraha campaign against mandatory carrying of registration certificates by migrant Indians in South Africa.

To peacefully mobilize Ahmedabad Mill workers for fulfilling their demand of plague bonus.

To advocate non violent means of struggle among the militant nationalists.

During his stay in South Africa, Gandhi Ji took various initiatives for the betterment of discriminated communities.

One such discrimination was imposed by new legislation in South Africa in 1906 which mandated migrant Indians to compulsorily carry at all times certificates of registration with their fingerprints.The Indians under Gandhi's leadership decided not to submit to this discriminatory measure.
Gandhi formed the Passive Resistance Association to conduct the Satyagraha campaign.
As a response, the government jailed Gandhi Ji and others who refused to register themselves. Later, the authorities used deceit to make these defiant Indians register themselves. The Indians under the leadership of Gandhi retaliated by publicly burning their registration certificates.
