Gandhiji married Kasturbai Makhanji Kapadia at the age of 13, and then at age of14 in May 1883. Their first son died early. He survived only a few days. They had four sons, Harilal (1888), Manilal (1892), Ramdas (1897) and Devdas (1900).

Gandhi Ji graduated from college in Ahmedabad in November 1887 and enrolled in college at Samaldas College Bhavnagar, but dropped out to join his family in Porbandar.

A graduate of law from London

Mavji Dave Joshiji, a brahmana, and friend of the Gandhi family suggested Mahatma Gandhi go to London to obtain a degree from the Inner Temple in London.

Although Gandhiji willingly agreed, his mother Putlibai was adamant not sending him to London, fearing that he would go for alcohol and meat. However, it gradually subsided when Gandhiji gave the word to refrain from alcohol, meat, and women.

At the age of 22, June 1891, Gandhiji returned to India and started layer practice.

Lawyer practice by Mahatma Gandhi

Gandhiji left London for India on June 1891. He practiced as a lawyer in Mumbai for a short time, but he failed because he could not interrogate witnesses.

He then returned to Rajkot, where he prepared petitions for trial parties to earn modestly, but was forced to stop working because of a conflict with a British officer.

A civil rights activist in South Africa (1893–1914)

During his apprenticeship in Rajkot, a wealthy Muslim merchant from Kathiawar, Dada Abdullah, approached Gandhi Ji.

Abdullah ran a successful forwarding business in South Africa and needed a lawyer, preferably from the Kathiawar region, to handle the case in South Africa. Gandhiji asked about his salary and found it satisfactory. In 1893 he went to Johannesburg (South Africa).

Upon arriving in South Africa, Gandhiji witnessed racial discrimination based on skin color. He was thrown out from the first-class compartment of the train he boarded and protested, sitting at the station all night, shaking with cold, but refusing to board another train.

He could board the next day, but the incident impressed him profoundly and sowed the seeds of civil rights movements in South Africa and India.

The case in which Gandhi Ji went to Africa ended in 1894. The Indian merchant community organized a fair well for Gandhiji and was persuaded to extend his stay to legally assist buyers and workers, as most were not well educated and barely read or wrote in English. With the trust and responsibility given to him by the Indian community, Mahatma Gandhi agreed to stay there.

During his stay in South Africa, he fought for the civil rights of the Natal Indians, demanding for them equal status as white people. He fought discrimination in travel, hotels, and other public places. Gandhiji founded the Native Indian Congress in 1894, for promoting equivalent human rights in South Africa for Indians.

Later, he also struggled for the voting rights of the indigenous people of Africa and led many protests for the “right to vote.” Gandhi Ji was proclaimed a national hero when black Africans gained the right to vote in 1894, and many statues of Mahatma Gandhi can still be seen in South Africa.

Indian Independence Movement (1915–1947):

Mahatma Gandhi returned to India from South Africa in 1915 and was furious at the crowded politics of the British Empire. He fought for unfair tax laws applied to Indians by the British government, strictly following his policy of non-violence and civil disobedience. The Honorary Mahatma (Great Soul) was first handed over to him by Rabindranath Tagore on the 6th of March 1915.

Gandhiji beat up an essential role during World War I, appealing to Indian youth to enlist in the army for defense. Mahatma Gandhi assumed the leadership of the Indian National Congress in 1931. He organized protests against oppressive politics and unfair tax regulations of the British Empire.

Some are Champaran’s excitement, Kher’s excitement, the Khilafat movement, and the non-cooperative movements are some of the significant moves he led. He led the Dandi march, protesting against taxes charged by the British administration on salt production by the Indians in the coastal city of Dandi (Gujarat).

The Dandi march was aimed at producing salt from seawater, as was commonly practiced by Indians, especially coastal regions, to meet their salt needs. The Dandi march lasted 25 days from the 12th of March 1930. To the 6th of April 1930, the British rulers finally bowed to the protests.

Besides Salt Satyagraha he also organized many protests against the British Empire, such as the Swadeshi Movement, the Quit India Movement, and various others, leading India to the path of total independence or “Purna
