ABSTRACT

In spite of all the attention showered upon Rama Sundara by jail authorities, as well as by the community, the confinement in jail appeared irksome to him, and on his release he made a final good-bye to the Transvaal and to the movement. The leaders of every clean movement are bound to see that they admit only clean fighters into it. The English section kept the Indians informed about the movement who did not know Gujarati; and for Englishmen all over the world who have sympathized with the cause Indian Opinion has served the purpose of the weekly news-letter. The first day of July in the Transvaal saw the opening of all the permit offices for the issue of registration certificates. Some malevolent Indians in Germiston suggested to the Asiatic Department that many Indians would take out permits if this man, Rama Sundara, was arrested.
