Satyaagraha/ Satyagraha Meaning [सत्याग्रह]

Satyaagraha or Satyagraha was a term coined by Mahatma Gandhi for his unique way of fighting against injustice without being violent. As such the meaning of the word doesn't mention non-violence, still the term is used for non-violent methods of protesting.

Literally, Satyagraha is made of Satya and Aagraha, the former meaning Truth and the latter meaning Request. So the meaning is literally 'Request for Truth'. The aagraha here is also used as insistence, though usually it's not used to that effect, and hence Satyagraha is called Insistence for Truth.

Either way, the word is not just limited to request or insistence for Truth alone, but is used as a way of protesting against any injustice in an active but non-violent way.

Sir outside the entire society is dealing with a historical up-down and you're thinking of just discipline!

is tarah baat nahi karenge aap mujhse...

You'll not talk to me like that...

aapke vice principal, khulle aam kk coaching classes chalate hain, laakhon kamate hain, magar unko saat khoon maaf* hain, aakhir unki pehchan humse alag hai

Your Vice Principal openly runs KK Coaching Classes, earns lacs, but for him it's all allowed*.. after all his identity is different from ours.

kya aap mujh par jaativaad ka aarop laga rahe hain?

Are you accusing me of casteism?

tum samajhte kya ho apne aap ko? How dare you talk to my father like that?

aap the zero, hain zero, aur aap hamesha rahenge, zero.

You were zero, are zero, and you will always remain, Zero.

Our children study day and night, and when it comes to admissions, you loot the charity. (you are) afraid of working hard.

WE ploughed your fields, WE harvested your crops, WE grazed your cattle, sewed your shoes, drove (your) bullocks, sailed (your) boats, we cleaned the dirty drains of your homes, we have even carried your shit over our heads, you'll teach us hardwork!

is desh mein do bharat baste hain..

In this country, two Indias live..
