Gandhi Jayanti Speech Introduction

Respected Principal, teachers and my dear friends,
Today is Gandhi Jayanti. About 155 years ago, when a child was born in Porbandar, a small town in Gujarat, no one would have thought that 'Mahatma' would be associated with his name forever. No one would have imagined even in their dreams that that child would grow up to be called the 'Father of the Nation'. That the whole world will lovingly call him 'Bapu'.

5 line speech on Gandhi Jayanti

Today we have not gathered here to celebrate the birth anniversary of just one person. Every year on October 2, the country does not remember just one personality. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi is more than just a personality. Gandhi is not just a name, it is a complete ideology in itself. An ideology that has the power to establish peace in the entire world.

2nd October special day

Apart from the independence of India, Mahatma Gandhi also played a big role in non-violence in the society, showing the path of truth to the people and giving the right to live a respectable life to the marginalized people of the society. This day gives us an opportunity to remember the thoughts of Gandhiji and the struggles undertaken by him.

Gandhi's principles

Gandhiji believed in truth, non-violence and living a simple life. He believed that it was wrong to resort to violence to solve any problem. With this ideology he also fought for India's independence. During the Indian freedom struggle, non-violent movements like Civil Disobedience Movement, Swadeshi Movement, Quit India Movement, Dandi March were carried out. Gandhiji's Dandi March (Salt Movement) became an example of Satyagraha against the atrocities of the British for many countries around the world. Which forced even the biggest powers to bow down.

social reformer mahatma gandhi

Gandhiji was not only a freedom fighter. He was also a social reformer. He raised his voice against untouchability, casteism and discrimination against women. Bapu used to say that development of any society is possible only when everyone gets equal rights in it.

Every Gandhi Jayanti reminds us of what we can achieve by adopting Gandhiji's ideas and the path shown by him. By adopting the principles of Gandhiji, we can not only become a better person but can also take our society and country forward. How small efforts can solve even the biggest problems. The true tribute to Bapu would be that we imbibe his ideals.

Concluding with a poem on Gandhi Jayanti

By teaching the lesson of non-violence,
Showed us a new environment.
Dalits were brought up by calling them Harijans,
Liberated the country from untouchability.
He was a worshiper of truth and non-violence.
Bapu, you have changed the world.
Thank you!
