Mahatma Gandhi was born on October 2, 1869 in
Porbandar. A lawyer by profession, Gandhi led the struggle for India's
independence from British rule by following the path of non-violence. Ironically, Gandhi was shot dead by a Hindu
fanatic, Nathuram Godse, at a prayer meeting in Delhi on January 30, 1948, less
than a year after India became independent. Gandhi is venerated throughout India as the 'father of the
nation'. His statues can be found across the country and nearly every town has
at least one street named after him. India observes Gandhi's death anniversary as Martyrs' Day in the
memory of its freedom fighters.
