Mahatma Gandhi gave the iconic 'Do or Die' slogan during the Quit India Movement, which was launched on August 8, 1942, at the Gowalia Tank Maidan in Bombay. This movement marked the final major civil disobedience campaign against British colonial rule, demanding an immediate end to the British presence in India.
The Quit India Movement led directly to the formation of the Indian National Army (INA) context and influenced the post-war negotiations under the Cabinet Mission Plan of 1946.
The Quit India Movement is also known as the August Kranti Movement.
The slogan 'Do or Die' (Karo ya Maro) was delivered in Gandhi's speech to the All India Congress Committee session.
The movement was triggered by the failure of the Cripps Mission, which had failed to provide a clear timeline for Indian independence.
The British government arrested most top Congress leaders, including Gandhi, Nehru, and Patel, on the morning of August 9, 1942, leaving the movement to be led by second-tier leaders and the public.
Aruna Asaf Ali is famously remembered for hoisting the Indian flag at Gowalia Tank Maidan during the launch of the movement.
Option A (Non-Cooperation Movement) occurred in 1920-1922; Option C (Kheda Satyagraha) took place in 1918; Option D (Champaran Satyagraha) was Gandhi's first civil disobedience movement in India in 1917.
B is correct — Mahatma Gandhi famously invoked the 'Do or Die' mantra during the launch of the Quit India Movement in August 1942.
When studying the Quit India Movement, always correlate the timeline with the Cripps Mission (1942) and the subsequent Wavell Plan (1945), as these represent the shifting British stance toward Indian independence.
