    Mahatama Gandhi is well known as the father of the Indian independence movement. During his lifetime Gandhi spent 20 years in South Africa working to end discrimination. He demonstrated a non-violent way of protesting against injustices. While in India, Gandhi's simple lifestyle drew him to people. He spent the remaining years of his life working persistently to remove British rule from India as well as to better the lives of India's poorest classes. Despite Gandhi’s appeal for peace, his life ended un-peacefully when he was shot on January 30, 1948 at the age of 78.

    Mohandas Karamchand Ghandi, known as Mahatma , or ‘Great Soul’ was a successful leader who managed to cause major political change in countries that experienced an abundance of racial discrimination and cultural inferiority .The two most significantly effected countries that experienced direct positive empowerment because of Mahatma Ghandi were South Africa and India. Reason for Ghandi’s immense success with each goal he set was his strong self belief, resilience, persistence and determination. Apart from these characteristics allowing Ghandi to achieve his goals, they made him an exceptional example of an effective leader. In South Africa Mahatma Ghandi fought for Indian civil rights, his success resulted in the reformation of the anti- Indian Legislation, by South African Officials. Throughout the history of South Africa racial discrimination was always prevalent among society. Native Africans, Indians and Asians were constantly subject to racial injustices, particularly from the 1800’s to 1959. Examples of this are evident throughout the legislations and laws that were directed at Indians; Indians; -Could only freely migrate to South Africa as indentured Labourers (labourers on contract) - They had none of the rights of full citizenship - Were not allowed to own property or land - Were only granted temporary residence -Forced to pay of sum of £3 if they were ex-indentured Indians that failed to reindenture or chose to return to India after their labour contracts were completed . - Had to live in government allocated areas for ‘sanitation’ purposes - Were the only race that had to complete a educational, health, age and means test in order to gain admission into the country with the exclusion of Indian indentured labourers. (this purpose of this test was to stop further immigration of ‘free Indians’ (Indians that came to South Africa not indentured)…

    The father of Independent India was Mohandas Gandhi (1869-1948). A political and spiritual leader, who was called the Mahatma or the Great Soul, was born in Porbandar, a small town on the western coast of India, at the time the British were ruling India. He was born into a political, middleclass Hindu family. Both his grandfather and father have been Prime Ministers of a small Indian state. He was just a normal kid like others, nevertheless he was very shy. A family of politics had made in him this passion and strength; this great soul that created the great leader. “He had inspired two generations of India, patriots, shaken an empire and sparked off a revolution which was to change the face of Africa and Asia.

    Rabindranath Gitanjali

    • 880 Words
    • 4 Pages

    (Gitanjoli) is a collection of 103 English poems, largely translations, by the Bengali poet Rabindranadha Tagore This volume became very famous in the West, and was widely translated. Gitanjali (Gitanjoli) is also the title of an earlier Bengali volume (1910) of mostly devotional songs. The word gitanjoli is a composed from "git", song, and "anjoli", offering, and thus means - "An offering of songs"; but the word for offering, anjoli, has a strong devotional connotation, so the title may also be interpreted as "prayer offering of song". The English collection is not a translation of poems from the Bengali volume of the same name. While half the poems (52 out of 103) in the English text were selected from the Bengali volume, others were taken from these works (given with year and number of songs selected for the English text): Gitimallo (1914,17), Noibeddo (1901,15), Khea (1906,11) and a handful from other works. The translations were often radical, leaving out or altering large chunks of the poem and in one instance even fusing two separate poems (song 95, which unifies songs 89,90 of naivedya). The translations were undertaken prior to a visit to England in 1912, where the poems were extremely well received. A slender volume was published in 1913 with an exhilarating preface by W B Yeats and in the same year, based on a corpus of three thin translations, Rabindranath became the first non-European to win the Nobel price for Literature.…

    Bose and many other patriots. This resulted in 'The Independence' of our country and also laid the foundation for a civilisation which would stand by its own interests. And Gandhi was one who dreamt of a 'CORRUPTION FREE INDIA'. Its quite unnatural to think if Gandhi had got no notion of the cancerous disease of corruption which would become the very threat for the healthy function of the domain within decades. He gave or lived not in a 'corruption-free India' but an India of lesser corruption which has turned,now to be a 'Country Pested with Corruption'.…
