What did Verwoerd ban that led to Mandela's imprisonment?
Religious Gatherings

Political Parties
International Travel
Answer
The answer lies in Verwoerd's banning of political parties that opposed the apartheid regime in South Africa. Notably, the African National Congress (ANC), where Mandela was a prominent leader, was among the banned organizations. This prohibition severely restricted political activism and peaceful opposition, effectively silencing dissenting voices and leading to Mandela's eventual imprisonment as he continued his efforts to dismantle the unjust system.
