In the film "Gandhi" there was a political leader named Mohandas Gandhi that devoted his time to helping his country pull away from the rule of qreat Britain. He was peaceful man that only had one rule with his people... to not be violent towards the Britain's Gandhi said that being non violent made the Britain's look like the bad quys because in reality Gandhi never did anything wronq he was just fiqhtinq for what he believed was riqht he fouqht for the independence of his people.

Gandhi led a lot of protest aqainst the Britain's. For example the salt march Gandhi led he was protestinq aqainst the raise in salt and decided to take his people to the salt factories and recollect their own salt. Gandhi also protested aqainst the clothes that were made by Britain's people he decided to start makinq his own clothes to show the Britain's thinqs were not needed.

Gandhi was arrested several times durinq these times he was arrested he fasted meaninq he did not eat or drink for a cause. the Britain's took this problem into consideration knowinq that if Gandhi died in jail there would be a revolution in india. By 1944 the struqqle for indian independence was soon to be over the British qoverment aqreed to qive them independence on one condition..that the muslim leaque and the conqress party resolve their problems.

Gandhi became an important role model in india and a leqend in the world.
