अहिंसा परमॊ धर्मः is half/semi truth.

अहिंसा means non-violence in relative sense.

There are times when violence can also be considered अहिंसा if that violence is used to stop greater violence/EVIL.

-To kill a man who is taking away the lives of innocent is अहिंसा Image

If someone enters the house and molests a lady, a householder CANNOT keep quiet.

Similarly, in a war, a soldier cannot put down his weapons.

In either case, practicing अहिंसा would be adharma, NOT dharma.

Similarly, a king must protect his subjects even if it requires violence to punish criminals or going to war with neighboring kingdoms if they attack.

A king should always raise his rod of chastisement to keep peace and order in his country.
