On the occasion of 156th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, let us take a look at 5 of his most memorable speeches: Banaras Hindu University speech (February 04, 1916)“If we are to receive self-government, we shall have to take it... freedom loving as it (British Empire) is, it will not be a party to give freedom to a people who will not take it themselves.”
2. Dandi March speech (March 11, 1930)“We have resolved to utilize all our resources in the pursuit of an exclusively non-violent struggle. Let no one commit a wrong in anger.”
3. Round Table Conference speech, (November 30, 1931)“I dare to say, it (the strife between Hindus and Muslims in India) is coeval with the British Advent, and immediately this relationship, the unfortunate, artificial, unnatural relationship between Great Britain and India is transformed into a natural relationship, when it becomes if it does become, a voluntary partnership to be given up, to be dissolved at the will of either party, when it becomes that you will find that Hindus, Mussalmans, Sikhs, Europeans, Anglo-Indians, Christians, Untouchable, will all live together as one man.”
4. The 'Quit India' speech (August 08, 1942)“I believe that in the history of the world, there has not been a more genuinely democratic struggle for freedom than ours.”
5. Speech before his final fast (January 12, 1948)“I yearn for heart friendship between the Hindus, the Sikhs, and the Muslims. It subsisted between them the other day. Today it is non-existent. It is a state that no Indian patriot worthy of the name can contemplate with equanimity.”
