India - Mahatma Gandhi's Birthday
Mahatma Gandhi's Birthday (Gandhi Jayanti) is one of the three national holidays celebrated in India, the other two being Republic Day and Independence Day. It is observed on October 2. Mahatma Gandhi is often unofficially referred to as the Father of the Indian Nation.
Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, also known as Mahatma Gandhi, was born on October 2, 1869. He dedicated his life to struggling for the independence of India from the British Empire. Unlike independence leaders in most of the countries, Gandhi chose the route of non-violence. His philosophy, satyagraha, was a theory and practice within civil resistance.
