It portrays how individuals, particularly women, participated actively in the struggle for independence. For instance, the passage describes how Ammaji, with her husband's support, joined Gandhi’s nationwide satyagraha against foreign goods. She marched with other women shouting slogans and picketing shops, which led to her arrest and imprisonment.
