"The Indians' demonstration and act of resistance was a successful strategy to change laws."
Reason: the passage shows their protest (satyagraha, burning/tossing of certificates, mass demonstrations) led to the government backing down/reevaluating the Black Act — not because leaders agreed with them, nor because certificates were hidden as property, and not as an absolute claim that satyagraha was more powerful than government authority.
