Every year on October 2nd, India celebrates Gandhi Jayanti, the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, the revered freedom fighter and the father of the nation. Gandhi’s philosophy of non-violence and civil disobedience profoundly impacted India’s independence movement and served as an inspiration for global civil rights efforts. His profound belief in non-violence transcended borders and continues to guide freedom and equality movements worldwide.
In recognition of Gandhi’s legacy, the United Nations General Assembly declared October 2nd as the International Day of Non-Violence on June 15, 2007. This day serves as an occasion to spread the message of non-violence through education and public awareness, promoting global peace and harmony.
As you celebrate Gandhi Jayanti, take a moment to reflect on his teachings and their enduring relevance. Share these messages and quotes with your loved ones, reminding them of the power of non-violence and the importance of striving for a more peaceful world.
