The correct answer is

Attack

Satyagraha, for Gandhi, is truth-force or soul-force: resisting injustice by self-suffering and love, never by inflicting harm on the opponent. Ahimsa (non-violence) is its inseparable basis.

Its accepted techniques include non-cooperation, civil disobedience (breaking unjust laws openly and accepting the penalty), fasting (as self-purification and moral appeal) and boycott (for example of foreign cloth), along with hartal and picketing.

An attack involves aggression and violence against the opponent, which contradicts the very essence of satyagraha. So it cannot be part of the satyagrahi’s method.

Therefore civil disobedience, fasting and boycotting are forms of satyagraha, while attack is excluded.

Hence, Attack.
