It provided unlimited drawn-out emergency actions of prolonged detention, arrest with no trial or review from the judiciary during World War II.  This was due to activities from nationalist rebels who might engage in alleged conspiracies while the war was being waged.

Many Indians saw it as an abuse of power because they can arrested without a warrant.

Harthal refers to strikes in workplaces where the workplace is closed by striking employees. Satyagraha is non-violent protest which what Gandhi used. I means insistence of the truth.

Although Nehru and Gandhi were always together there were times when they were at odds with each other.  The Salt March was one example because Nehru had doubts but when he saw the potential of it, he changed his mind.  Another was when he demanded a complete separation from the British and this was rejected by Gandhi.

 

 

What is a political orientation that favors social progress by reform and by changing laws rather than by revolution?pragmatism
socialism
liberalism
utilitarianism

Answers

The correct answer in this case is liberalism. 

Socialism is the opposite as it entails (Among other things) the idea of fast changes, if need be with revolution. Neither does utilitarianism talk about social progress through reform.

Libertarians talk exactly about what the question is about; one of the main tennets of liberalism is that they prefer and would like to witness social change through reforms. 
It would be the political orientation of "pragmatism," that favors social progress by reform and by changing laws rather than by revolution, since this holds that most people want to obey laws.
