Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, popularly known as Mahatma Gandhi was not only a freedom fighter but the leader who employed nonviolent resistance to lead the successful campaign for India's independence from British rule. His movements of civil rights and freedom have inspired leaders across the world. 

After the country got Independence in 1947, Mahatma Gandhi stayed away from politics and started working on the harmony, peace, and brotherhood among the people. However, on January 30, 1948, Gandhi was assassinated Nathuram Godse- a Hindu nationalist. He was killed in the compound of Birla House- now known as Gandhi Smriti, during his evening prayers.
