THOUGHTS OF MAHATMA GANDHI

 UPSC GS MAINS IMPORTANT QUESTIONS


Throw light on the significance of the thoughts of Mahatma Gandhi in the present times.



Gandhi's ideals of non-violence and sustainable living are a continuation of the long tradition that India has followed.




With the advent of Globalization and an era of consumerism based culture Gandhi's thoughts have become a more relevant than ever before. Gandhi believed in all- inclusive group and felt that India can become a great nation when its improvished rural masses become better off. Gandhi's firm believe on empowering the rural masses, decentralization of political power, sanitation and hygiene, women empowerment and living in harmony with nature and even more relevant today than they were during times of Gandhi.

Government's overemphasis on Swatch Bharat, empowering Panchayats and inclusive growth is the testimony of continuation of Gandhi's ideals in the behavioral politics of India. 


Gandhi's ideal of international peace and co-operation among nations, his stand for democracy and freedom and his fight against racialism still encourages people to raise their voices. From Martin Luther King to Nelson Mandela, Barack Obama and Aung Sang Suu Kyi many have cherished his ideas and improve the lives of millions.


Gandhism is alive and active in the modern world more than any other political discourse. Therefore we can say that the principles that Gandhi followed throughout his life and his teachings are still relevant in both national as well as international context.
