    Also he is known as that because the Indian economy was suffering; Gandhi was strongly motivated to free India from the unhealthy economy, and did so in a father-like manner. Gandhi sought to rid India of the British superpower, and achieve his goals of an India that was fully dependent upon itself, and a country where all men and women, regardless of their religion or creed were treated as equals. He tried to make things better for poor people and people from India. Instead of fighting the British, Gandhi told everyone that they should use "passive resistance." In other words, he wanted to fight with words instead of bullets.…

    Udham Singh changed his name to Ram Mohammad Singh Azad and was also known as Ram Mohammed Singh Azad, symbolizing the unification of the three major religions of India: Hinduism, Islam and Sikhism. Singh is considered one of the best-known of the more heroic revolutionaries of the Indian freedom struggle; he is also sometimes referred to as Shaheed-i-Azam Sardar Udham Singh (the expression "Shaheed-i-Azam," Urdu: شهید اعظم, means "the great martyr"). Bhagat Singh and Udham Singh along with Chandrasekhar Azad, Rajguru and Sukhdev, were the more famous names out of scores of young firebrand freedom fighters in the early part of 20th-century India. These young men believed their motherland would win her freedom only through the jolting up the sleeping British rulers. For their strong belief in display of courage to achieve India's freedom, a nervous England labelled these men as "India's earliest Marxists".It should be noted that contrary to the British perception , these freedom fighters never harmed the common people in any way and their acts were only aimed at attracting the attention of the British rulers. They acted as a wake up call to the foreign rulers that Indians will no longer tolerate their treachorous rule and impositions.…
