Gandhi Jayanti is observed on October 2nd of each year. On this day, Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, the nation's father, was born. His birthday is observed on this day, which has also been designated a national holiday. Because of his continuous efforts to liberate India from the British Raj after the Satyagraha, he is referred to as the father of the nation.
One of the three national holidays observed throughout the nation is Gandhi Jayanti. Every year on October 2nd, it is observed to honour the outstanding personality's birthdate. He dedicated his life to the cause of achieving the nation's independence and was a wonderful freedom warrior with a lovely heart. He has guided the nation to freedom through the Satyagraha way (non-violence), and he firmly believes in both truth and non-violence. Thus, October 2nd is observed as International Non-Violence Day throughout the world. He had devoted his entire life to serving the people of the nation, and as a result of his modest demeanour and altruistic actions, he was known as the “Father of the Nation.”
In addition to celebrating Gandhi Jayanti, several of India's most significant historical moments from the country's war for independence are remembered. Gandhi Ji's efforts to free the nation from the British Raj are honoured on this day. On this day, numerous colleges and universities are open to host social and cultural events. Mahatma Gandhi is honoured through a variety of quizzes, art contests, plays, concerts, and other events. Numerous governmental and non-governmental organisations also carry out social activities, such spreading the word about how crucial it is to preserve the environment, planting trees, etc. The Indian President and Prime Minister pay a visit to Raj-Ghat in New Delhi, where Mahatma Gandhi is interred, to observe this day. Thereafter, they offer prayers alongside other prominent Indian politicians.
