Quiz on Gandhiji On his Birth Anniversary

M. K. Gandhiji Father of the Nation

The day of 2 October is considered very important in the country. Mohandas was born in 1869 in Porbandar, Gujarat to Karamchand Gandhi and Putlibai, who were later called Mahatma Gandhi, the Father of the Nation through his personality, deeds and ideas. The country called this priest of truth and non-violence as Bapu. His incredible contribution to the independence of the country can never be forgotten. Mahatma Gandhi in his autobiography has written about almost all the important aspects and events of his life - 'My Experiment with Truth'. However, some issues have also come up from the books of other historians. Mahatma Gandhi's association with Sarala Devi Chaudharani is one of these examples, which is discussed by the noted historian Ramachandra Guha in his book.
