Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World.

Answer:

A: The successful tactic employed by the Indians' protest was effective in changing legal statutes.

The first option is accurate.

“The demonstration and act of resistance by the Indians effectively altered laws.” is the appropriate response.

The legislation known as “The Black Act” mandated that all male Asians register, be fingerprinted, and carry passes at all times. This led to a mobilization of Indians who joined Gandhi's nonviolent protest campaign called Satyagraha. After several years, during which many Indians and Gandhi were imprisoned, the government ultimately had to capitulate to growing public opinion and abolish the act.
