In 1914, Gandhi returned to India. British laws there were unjust, placing many Indians at an economic disadvantage. For example, by law Indians could only buy goods made in British factories. To protest this system, Gandhi stopped wearing cloth made in Britain. Instead, he spun his own cloth from Indian cotton. He encouraged others to do the same. The boycott worked. It hurt British clothing sales in India. It also allowed Indians to sell more of their own cloth. With more income, they wouldn't be as poor. Gandhi also fought British injustice by fasting. He would refuse to eat for five or six days. Gandhi's fasts drew public attention to his cause. Newspapers and the public began to sympathize with Gandhi. They put pressure on the British government to change its ways.
