Story outline:

MAHATMA GANDHI PART 1 OF 2
India's freedom fighter and non-violence advocate

Mahatma Gandhi's life is a lesson in quiet determination, unflinching faith and profound values. Through a simple and most humble life, Gandhi went on to become an icon of freedom and peace, leading and inspiring the lives of ordinary people to perform extraordinary tasks. Gandhi's deep rooted values and methods have been admired and adopted by world leaders across history from Martin Luther King to Obama as well as ordinary people in various walks of life.

Gandhi's life history is beautifully retold by Amar Chitra Katha Comics, in full color traditional art with the costume of the times. It transports us to the Indian freedom movements he led in both South Africa and then in India. This App, detailing Gandhi's early life and his journey to freedom in South Africa is the first of the two parts. Both parts may be bought as a single volume as well.

Gandhi's greatness can be sensed from the simple words of the Frenchman Leon Blum when he heard of Gandhi's death by assassination on 30 January 1948:
"I never saw Gandhi..I do not know his language. I never set foot in his country and yet, I feel the same sorrow as if I had lost someone near and dear".
