BIOGRAPHY

Mahatma Gandhi was a lawyer, politician and Indian thinker of the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries (born October 2, 1869 and died on January 30, 1948) known
mainly for claiming and conducting India's independence through non-violent
methods .

Ironically, Gandhi died in the violence he fought so hard. He was 79 years old
when, in 1948, a Hindu fanatic killed him in New Delhi. But his legacy went around
the world and has been inspiration for characters of the caliber of Martin Luther
King, Dalai Lama and Albert Einstein.
