Why did Mohandas Gandhi organize nonviolent protests in South Asia

Answer: Gandhi was a pacifist.

Explanation:

Gandhi was a man of liberal political beliefs. A pacifist by nature. Extremely intelligent and knowledgeable. Gandhi did not use violence as a mechanism to combat his country's colonization.

Gandhi knew what the strength of Britain was, and he knew that in doing so, he would risk thousands of lives of his people. For this reason, he approached this unique method of protest, which involved civil disobedience, non-payment of taxes, a hunger strike and the like.
