Good morning, Principal, teachers and friends. Today we are celebrating the 155th birth anniversary of the Father of the Nation, Mahatma Gandhi, who was born on October 2, 1869. His principles of truth, non-violence and civil disobedience played a vital role in India’s freedom struggle, making this day a historic milestone in our history.
Mahatma Gandhi was a great leader of our country. He was born on 2 October 1869. He taught us some very important things from which we all can learn.
Gandhi believed in non-violence, which means non-violence. He said that problems can be solved without fighting or hurting anyone. He showed us that even in difficult times, we can stay strong without any means.
He also believed in “Satyagraha”, which means the power of truth. Gandhi ji always spoke the truth and said that speaking the truth can change the world. He adopted peaceful methods to fight for the freedom of our country.
Gandhiji lived a simple life. He wore simple clothes and ate simple food. He taught us that we don’t need a lot of things to be happy. It is important to be satisfied with what we have.
On 30 January 1948, when he was 78 years old, Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated by Nathuram Godse. His final resting place, called Rajghat, is located in Delhi. Even though he is no longer among us, his teachings and guidance will always be remembered. His last words were ‘Hey Ram’, and his motto was ‘My life is my message.’
So, on Gandhi Jayanti, we remember these important teachings from him. We should be kind to others, speak the truth and lead a simple and honest life.
