He fought not only for India's independence but also for justice, human rights, and communal harmony. Gandhi's principles continue to resonate today, serving as a reminder of the power of peaceful resistance and the pursuit of truth and justice. His legacy as a leader, thinker, and advocate for social change is deeply ingrained in the fabric of India's history and the global fight for peace and equality.
