Correct Answer: Henry David Thoreau

Solution : Correct Answer is Henry David Thoreau

Civil disobedience began after the British ignored Gandhi’s 11 demands. In response, Gandhi allied himself with young activists to lead a movement known as the ‘Civil Disobedience’ Movement. During Gandhi’s anti-British protests, he called on all Indians to follow his lead. Gandhi’s inspiration for leading the civil disobedience movement came from the writings of the American writer Henry David Thoreau.
