The Person Who Inspired Me Most.

           The Person Who Inspired Me Most.




      There are many famous people in the world. People can be famous for different reasons. Some people excel in some field and become famous. There are famous scientists,actors,inventors, sportsmen etc. Among them the person who inspired me most is a freedom fighter. He is none other than Mahathma Gandhi.

       Mahathma Gandhi was born in india. He was born in 1869. According to the Hindu customs Gandhi married at an early age. Later he went to England for his higher studies and became a lawyer. Then he went to South Africa and started the journey of his life as a lawyer.

      Gandhi returned to India, his motherland and joined the freedom struggle. He wanted to free his country from the British. He saw how his countrymen were suffering at the hands of the British. However Gandhi did not encourage people to take up arms against the white men. His campaigns were non violent. He organized massive protest campaigns against the British rule in India. 

          Gandhi wanted to make India self sufficient. He encouraged people to cultivate what they wanted in their home gardens. Also he told people to make their own clothes. He himself practised what he told his people. 

      However this great person died an unnatural death. He was shot dead by an Indian on the 30th January 1948. But Mohandas Gandhi still remains in our hearts as a true leader.
