Discussion
Gandhian Satyagrah :
(i) is a pacific means to settle disputes
(ii) believes in the end justifies means
(iii) believes in the close connection between means and end
Answer: D
Statements i and iii are correct, so the answer is Only (i) and (iii) are correct.
Gandhi's satyagraha is a peaceful (pacific) method of resolving conflict through truth and non-violence (i). Gandhi insisted that means and ends are inseparable, comparing the means to a seed and the end to the tree, so impure means cannot produce a pure end (iii).
Statement ii, that the end justifies the means, is precisely the doctrine Gandhi rejected, which rules out options A and C; option B fails because i and iii are correct.
