The paper was suspended during the "Individual Satyagraha" against War in 1940, and again in 1942 on the eve of the "Quit India" Movement and Gandhiji's arrest and incarceration. The management came over to the Navjivan Trust, ahmedabad, simultaneously with its revival on January 18, 1942. In 1946 (when publication was resumed) and 1947, the paper published reports of Gandhiji's prayer speeches during his tours of West and east Bengaland Bihar and stay in Delhi, during a period of unpresented communal turmoil.
