Mahatma Gandhi was a great leader in India. He was born on 2 October 1869, in Gujarat. When he was a child, he learned about the religions of Hinduism and Jainism. Gandhi's family moved to Rajkot when he was 7 years old. In Rajkot, Gandhi attended elementary school and then high school, where he was a bit shy and he did not make friends easily. He was the youngest child in his family. After he finished learning in school, he used to rush back home to spend all his free time reading lots of books. In 1887, he finished his studies at a University in Bombay. He tried to start a law career, but unfortunately, he was very unsuccessful. In 1893, he got a job in South Africa. He saw Europeans not treating Indians very well. He got into politics so he can fight for Indian rights. Gandhi returned to India in 1915. He told all the Indians to stay peaceful.
After few years Gandhi became india's most strongest political leader. Gandhi's followers stopped using british products. Gandhi told all the indians to march to the sea to bring their own salt for themselves. Sometimes, Gandhi was jailed for his actions. After gandhi was released he did continue to fight for independence. In 1947 India won its independence and gandhi felt happy. But he felt disappointed because India's land was divided into two countries : India and Pakistan.
He tried to make peace. But unfortunately on 30th January 1948, In delhi, Nathuram Godse killed Gandhi and that was the end of his life. After gandhi's death, the whole world was inspired by Mahatma Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.
