A key figure in Indian politics and the movement for Indian independence, He was the founder of Satyagraha, a straightforward but profound philosophy that emphasizes the pursuit of the truth and active, nonviolent resistance to evil. Satyagraha helped India gain its independence and served as an inspiration for movements for civil rights and freedom around the globe. Gandhi is well-known as the Mahatma and as Bapu, both in India and throughout the world. His birthday, October 2, is observed annually as Gandhi Jayanti, a national holiday in India, where he is formally recognized as the nation's father. The International Day of Non-Violence has been celebrated on October 2 every year thanks to a resolution unanimously adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on June 15, 2007.
