Civil Disobedience
Civil Disobedience
Civil Disobey is the strategy against the government to dissolve it. in which people do all the illegal work such they denied to bill the utility bills, taxes and funds. This strategy is first discovered by Henry David Thoreau in his essay . This strategy is total against the laws, commands and demands of the government. First time in Pakistan and India Independence on 12th 1942, the Congress leader Mahatma Gandhi employed the civil disobedience against the British government.
When Ghandi sent a letter to P.K.Rao on September 10, 1935, he disagree with that his strategy was taken from Thoreau, he said :
"The statement that I had derived my idea of Civil Disobedience from the writings of Thoreau is wrong. The resistance to authority in South Africa was well advanced before I got the essay ... When I saw the title of Thoreau's great essay, I began to use his phrase to explain our struggle to the English readers. But I found that even "Civil Disobedience" failed to convey the full meaning of the struggle. I therefore adopted the phrase "Civil Resistance."
But this strategy became failed because of the internal issues of the subcontinent because there were Muslims also who standing for their independence.
Therefore, if we think from the side of government, it is very harmful not because there government is in danger but it will destroy the whole economy and the base of the country.
But the result of the Civil Disobedience is not so quick, it take time to effect.
Author Said :
" In my opinion, this strategy is not suitable for the Civilized Nation "
