Answer 2

Answer:

Many people are presuming about the Gandhiji's Voyage to S.A that he had been to SA for further studies.Since question is 'why did he go to SA?' I'll give the reason behind his journey to SA alone.

Though Gandhi completed his barrister in London, he had been battling to land a work in india,both in Bombay and in his hometown porbandar in Gujarat so this problem continued to elude him for almost one year . One day he got a call from Abdulla who was his family friend staying in SA needed a lawyer who knows Gujarati because Abdulla had a dispute with his cousin about some land issue.

Gandhi accepted his proposal and set sail for SA in 1893(he was 23 at that time). Eventually, after one year they won the case in court. But his journey in SA turned out to be around 20 years (This is an interesting story itself).

By the time he left South Africa for the last time in 1914,he had earned the appellation MAHATHMA.
