Yes, 2nd October 2013 is the 144th Birthday Anniversary of the Father of Indian Nation, Mahatma Gandhi. 2nd October has been declared as a National Holiday by the government along with that of Independence Day (15th August) and Republic Day (26th January).

Gandhiji led the Independence movement for decades. The Indian people in lakhs and crores participated in the struggle and India got freedom on 15th August 1947. The struggle for Independence from the British imperialists is a heroic saga of sacrifice, struggle, failure and victory for about two centuries. The First War of Independence (1857-58) was the starting point, but there were struggles and wars earlier also against the British.

Gandhiji experimented with truth throughout his life. But what about the present day? Many politicians of the day are experimenting not with truth, but with corruption, deceit and violence.
Our Respectful Homage to the memory of the Father of the Nation!
