Solution

The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
Gandhiji’s idea of Satyagraha is an exceptional way to resist evil. Through this mechanism, Gandhiji aimed at resisting any kind of unjust, impure or untruthful acts. The main function of a Satyagraha is not to injure the enemy by any means. It is an appeal to the enemy either through reason or by a gentle rational argument. It emphasized the power of truth and the need to search for truth.
