Mahatma Gandhi
Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, who was born on October 2nd, 1869, is regarded as the nation's father because of the great sacrifices he made for India. He not only helped India become free, but he also served as an inspiration for several international campaigns for human rights and independence.
Gandhi, also known as Bapu, is credited with introducing the nonviolent philosophy to India. He believed that a mixture of nonviolent protest and noncooperation with the British would lead to independence. Under his direction, the historical Non-Cooperation movement, the Dandi March, and the Quit India movement were all launched.
