Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
Mahatma Gandhi returned to India in 1915 and not in 1917. He took a tour of the nation for the next one year to understand the grievances and difficulties faced by the people of the country. Gandhi started the idea of Satyagraha. The word Satyagraha comprises two different Sanskrit words ‘satya’ and ‘agraha’. Satya means truth and agraha means the path. Satyagraha according to Mahatma Gandhi was the path of truth through which one can fight the injustice of the oppressor. Thus, the correct statement would be, Gandhi came to India in 1915.
