Mahatma Gandhi's 150th anniversary: Recalling his top quotes
New Delhi, Oct 02: On Mahatma Gandhi's 150th birth anniversary, his message of peace and non-violence is more relevant than ever. Mahatma Gandhi staunchly believed in non-violence and so strong was his belief that he wanted his followers to strictly adhere to it. Gandhiji not only preached non-violence but practised it in his life and even his fight for India's freedom from the British rule was rooted in the ideology of Ahimsa.
The Union Government has decided to commemorate the 150th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, Father of the Nation, at the national and international level to propagate his message.
