Happy Gandhi Jayanti

 



Gandhi Jayanti is indeed an occasion to celebrate. Every year in India as well as several parts of the world, it is celebrated in a grand. On Mahatma Gandhi Jayanti:

  • The President and Prime Minister of India pay homage in front of the Mahatma’s statue at the Raj Ghat in New Delhi.
  • Schools hold celebrations where students participate in fancy dress competitions, sing Mahatma Gandhi’s favourite hymns and present their own insights on the Gandhian philosophy of nonviolence.
  • Across the country, Mahatma Gandhi’s statues are refurbished and garlanded and people pay their respect to Gandhiji, as he was popularly addressed.

Mahatma Gandhi - ‘Father of Nation’ is lovingly addressed as ‘Bapu’ and till now people recall his bravery, as he stood up to the Britishers in a non-violent manner. He chose the path of ‘ahimsa’ (non-violence) and stuck to it till the very end.
Non-violence is not a garment to be put on and off at will. Its seat is in the heart, and it must be an inseparable part of our being. Wishing you a very happy Gandhi jayanti.

Following in Gandhi’s footsteps, the current Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi, introduced the Swachh Bharat Campaign, a cleanliness drive conducted in different localities. Under this campaign, Indians are encouraged to come together and contribute towards keeping their surroundings clean and spreading Ghandi’s message of love and peace.
