Which of the following was not one of the cardinal principles of Mahatma Gandhi doctrine of Satyagraha?

A Truthfulness
B Non-Violence
C Fearlessness
D Abstinence

Correct Answer: Abstinence

For Gandhi, satyagraha went far beyond mere "passive resistance" and became strength in practising non-violent methods. In his words: Truth (satya) implies love, and firmness (agraha) engenders and therefore serves as a synonym for force. Abstinence was not one of the cardinal principles of Mahatma Gandhi doctrine of Satyahraha.
