Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was born in pre-independent India when the British rule had become ruthless and cunning, putting millions of Indians through immense pain. Mohandas studied law in England and practised it in South Africa for several years where he perfected his philosophy of 'Satyagraha' (truth) and 'Ahimsa' (non-violence).
When Gandhiji returned to India, he soon became active in the ongoing freedom struggle of India. He did not like that the great nation of India was a colony, ruled by the British, but he did not want a violent war to decide the outcome of the nation.
Gandhiji deeply believed in non-violence and he led the independence struggle of India with peaceful protests which were well thought out and incredibly effective. His firm implementation of his beliefs on such a massive political scale and its effectiveness awed the world. It's simple to say one is non-violent personally, but to apply such a thought to create major change at such a large level was unheard of before. Hence, he was given the title of Mahatma. Mahatma means great soul.
Gandhiji was one of the biggest contributors to India's freedom movement and his methods for achieving it shaped the country greatly. He is even called the Father of our Nation. That is why his legacy is honoured, not only in India but all over the world.
