TRIBUTE TO GANDHI

 

Gandhiji was born on 2 October 1869 in Porbandar city of Gujarat.

 

He is revered the world over as one of history’s most transformative and inspirational figures known for his paragon of ethical living and pacifism.

 

He was a fearless campaigner for the rights and dignity of all people, whose constant and unwavering promotion of non-violence as a tool to win over hearts and minds has forever left its mark on the world.

 

His life achievement stands unique in political history. He invented a completely new and humane means for the liberation war. He is admired for his calm, courage and compassion.

 

In India he is referred to as Bapu (father of the nation). Origin of this title is traced back to a radio address (on Singapore radio) on 6 July 1944 by Subhash Chandra Bose where Bose addressed Gandhiji as “The Father of the Nation”.

 

He was also given the title of Mahatma, (taken from the Sanskrit words maha – meaning great and atma – meaning Soul. Rabindranath Tagore is said to have accorded this title to him.
