Violent and non-violent concepts/policies are very old but the true
manifestation of these two policies can be seen in the 20th century. While on the
one hand the champions of violence led the world to two World Wars resulting in
the deaths of millions of people, on the other hand it also saw the champions of
non-violent policy in action in the persons of Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther
King, Nelson Mandela and Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan, also known as Ba’acha
Khan and Badshah Khan. Though the first three are well-known personalities to
the world of non-violent policies, the last one is least known outside his own
region and the Indian sub-continent. The fact is that Ba’acha Khan role was rather
more difficult than the other three, because the area and the people where he
worked were considered to be least favorable for such kind of movement. But in
spite of the difficulties he launched a true non-violent movement among these
violent people of the Frontier and changed their outlook towards politics, life and
death.
