MAHAJMA GANDHI

In 1893, he got a job as a lawyer in South Africa. At that time, coloured people, including the Indians living in South Africa, and white people were not treated equally, and he fought for the rights of coloured people in general and the Indians in particular. In 1914, Gandhi moved back to India. At that time, the British ruled India and Indian people were not treated equally. Gandhi wanted the British to leave India so that the country could become independent. He was a peaceful man and against all forms of violence. In the end, he won, and the British left India in 1947.
