Gandhi led non-violent protests against the British forces occupying India. It's not a contradiction, and it's not figurative. Having not read the essay you're referring to, I don't know if this is his concluding argument. If it is a summary of his essay and it comes at the end, that's the answer. If not, then it's his purpose.
