"Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (2 October 1869 – 30 January 1948) was the preeminent leader of the Indian independence movement in British-ruled India. Employing nonviolent civil disobedience, Gandhi led India to independence and inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. The honorific Mahatma (Sanskrit:"high-soule","venerabl") applied to him first in 1914 in South Africa, is now used worldwide. He is also called Bapu (Gujarati: endearment for"fathe","pap" in India. In common parlance in India he is often called Gandhiji. He is unofficially called the Father of the Nation"--wikipedia (English)(viewed 12.9.2016). Newspaper clippings
