Gandhi Thought bubbles
A stamp of Gandhi

Mohandas Gandhi lived in India.  He was born in 1869.  He was a lawyer.  People called him 'Mahatma Gandhi'.  This means 'wise man'.

Britain had ruled India for 200 years.  Gandhi wanted India to be free.  


Gandhi was a Hindu and didn't believe in violence.  He broke unfair laws so people would know what he wanted.  He also tried to help Indians living in South Africa.  Britain left India in 1947.

Gandhi was killed one year later in 1948.
