OUR LEADERS
Emmai Vazhvikka Vanda Mahatma
Mahatma Gandhi, The apostle of Peace, is popularly known as The Father of the Nation in India. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was born on 2nd October 1869, in Porbandhar in India. The parents of this great son of India were Karamchand Gandhi and Puthli Bai. Gandhiji had always followed the path of truth and non-violence.
Here is the survey taken by our team to know what Gandhiji means to people:
Joanna says that to her Gandhi is a living example of what he said. The quality She liked the most in him was non-violence, because many people say something but do just the opposite. They don't do what they preach! He also had the courage to stand up and fight for what he felt was right.
Hrishi opines that he was a man with great foreseeing, and controlling ability in the field of human resources. His ideology is not half as important as the methods through which he evolved them and how he inspired millions to it. He was a great man, paralleled only by Sree Buddha and Jesus Christ.
Our teacher, Mr.D.Murthy has observed that M.K. Gandhiji was a living symbol of determination, dedication, devotion to Nation, dynamism and divinity combined with dignity. His paths of Patriotism along with Non-Violence for the Achievements of very high orders are quite time-tested and long-lasting. To follow or practice these ideals these days is a very great test of human strength and integrity.
From Our Principal, Mr.Vellaichami says, "Since my childhood, I consider him as an embodiment of Perseverance and Truth".
There is no doubt that the personality and thoughts of Gandhiji still influence the world. He is still remembered for his truthfulness, not only in October, but every time and everyday. He has given a right path for everybody to follow and let our thoughts be going through that way to reach our goals. Jai Hind!
