09 January - Mahatma Gandhi returned to India from South Africa

 


Mahatma Gandhi returned to India from South Africa on January 9, 1915. He had spent over 20 years in South Africa, where he became involved in the struggle for civil rights and social reforms, using nonviolent civil disobedience as a tool for protest. Gandhi's experiences in South Africa played a crucial role in shaping his philosophy of nonviolent resistance, which he later applied in the Indian independence movement. Upon his return to India, Gandhi emerged as a prominent leader in the fight against British colonial rule and went on to lead the country to independence through nonviolent means.
