    A With the cooperation of Indians Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In 'Hind Swaraj,' Mahatma Gandhi argued that the British were able to establish rule in India primarily through the cooperation of Indians, rather than by force alone. This perspective highlights the role of Indian complicity in enabling British control, reflecting Gandhi’s broader critique of modern civilization and the loss of self-rule (Swaraj).
