Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (1869-1948), frequently referred to by the honorific Mahatma, led a campaign of non-violent resistance to British colonial rule in India that helped achieve national independence in 1947. His ideology, actions, and the success of the movement resulted in a legacy as a father of the Indian nation and a widely-admired figure throughout the world.
