Every year, we celebrate Mahatma
Gandhi's birth anniversary on October 2 to send across the message of
peace and non-violence.
Mahatma Gandhi is one of the most important
figures in Indian politics as well as in its struggle for Independence.
On
June 15, 2007, the UN General Assembly declared October 2 as the
International Day of Non-Violence. Gandhi is considered among the first
to apply the principle of non-violence or ahimsa in the political field
on a large scale.
