  6. Excerpt: “Congress Responsibility For The Disturbances, 1942-43” Excerpt:“I Still Believe in Non-Violence” At the risk of some repetition, it is necessary to emphasize again the fact that Mr. Gandhi knew that any mass movement started in India would be a violent movement. He knew this from his bitter experience of the movements he had led ten and twenty years before. In spite of this knowledge, he was prepared to take the risk of outbreaks of rioting and disorder—a risk which in his writings he tried to minimize but in his mind he must have estimated correctly. The Indian Annual Register, 1942, Vol. II, pp. 199-20O “For the non-violent soldier must have the capacity to bear severe beatings, torture, mutilations, starvation and worse, and accept these without fear and without answer against those who oppress him.” Gandhi, M. K. (1943, June 26). I still believe in non-violence. Collier’s, 17.
