Soon after Katsurbai leaves Gandhi, the First World War erupts between Austro-Hungarians, Ottoman, French, Russians, and English... At this time Gandhi had to prepare himself to be sent over as soldier or in any form, to help the English in the front lines. Gandhi would enlist himself as a medic, and go in for training with other Indian troops and medics. Yet he would never see the violence first hand, as his platoon wasn't called...
Instead of using the Indians as soldiers, the English in India used them as almost slaves, cheap labourers, to work in every kind of field, mill, construction, etc... The Indians would have this injustice be played on them! This is the beginning of the "peaceful revolution".
