Mohandas K. Gandhi
Mahatma Gandhi (1869-1948) was a renowned leader in India's struggle for independence from British colonial rule. He developed the concept of Satyagraha, nonviolent resistance, as a powerful tool for social and political change. Gandhi returned to India in 1915 and became a prominent leader in the Indian National Congress. He led campaigns like the Salt March and Quit India Movement, which played pivotal roles in gaining independence. Tragically, he was assassinated in 1948. Gandhi's legacy of nonviolence, civil rights, and social justice continues to inspire movements worldwide.
