Personally i think Gandhiji was the greatest leader the world ever had. Bhagat Singh no doubt was great but frankly i dont think Britishers were terrorised of him or others. They hanged him when they felt the need. I think Britishers were more Terrorised of Gandhiji because he had world Approval behind him forget our counties. When news of Dadi yatra Speard over , all the people from over the world pressurised Britshers to release him.
Gandhiji was so strong that Britishers couldnt even think to hang him like other . This is i think , the real Power.Satyagraha is the form of ultimate truth and truth is the real power. We will great lots of leader in this world but there will only be one Gandhiji...
Ok.....now about the question ? Yes ..if it were Afghanistan people fighting taliban.But "NO" if its kashmir terrorists as the enemy is really unkown. And more importantly i think satyagraha works when you dont have the power on things but take the purity of heart route to appease the one in power. Here we have power in hand .Example...
A father cannout use satyagraha against his 2 year old Child so that he attends school.
Stick is the only route here as father holds the power between them for the betterment of child.
But if the Father is wrong the child can do satyagraha until his father stops Drinking..
So this is where Satyagraha works
