Yours faithfully Hello Resties! ❤ We are back with another #rzdearcharacters Gandhi's birthday, 2 October, is commemorated in India as Gandhi Jayanti, a national holiday, and worldwide as the International Day of Nonviolence. Gandhiji was commonly called Bapu which is an endearment for father. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was an Indian lawyer, anti-colonial nationalist and political ethicist who employed nonviolent resistance to lead the successful campaign for India's independence from British rule and in turn inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. The honorific Mahātmā (great-souled) first applied to him in 1914. His contributions to the formation of Modern India also gave him the title – "Father of the Nation".
