Women's Participation
From Rani Lakshmibai to salt satyagrahis and underground leaders.
Women such as Sarojini Naidu, Kasturba Gandhi, Aruna Asaf Ali, Usha Mehta and Matangini Hazra led protests, ran radio stations and faced prison.
Civil Disobedience in particular drew thousands of women into public life for the first time.
