Which prison held Mahatma Gandhi during his 1932 fast against separate electorates?

Yerwada Central Jail held Mahatma Gandhi during his 1932 fast against separate electorates.

Gandhi began the fast in September 1932 while imprisoned at Yerwada Central Jail near Pune. He was protesting the British Communal Award’s proposal to create separate electorates for the Depressed Classes, which Gandhi believed would permanently divide Hindu society.

The fast led to negotiations between Gandhi and leaders representing the Depressed Classes, including B. R. Ambedkar. These discussions produced the Poona Pact, which replaced separate electorates with reserved seats in joint electorates.

Yerwada should not be confused with the Aga Khan Palace, where Gandhi was detained during the Quit India period in the 1940s. The 1932 fast took place in Yerwada prison and had a distinct constitutional outcome.
