Conveying warm greetings and good wishes to the people of India on the occasion of the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, President Ram Nath Kovind said that Gandhi showed the world a novel way of struggle against injustice. "He founded his efforts to liberate India from colonial rule on the values of Truth (Satyagraha) and Non-Violence (Ahimsa). He remains a champion and icon of the oppressed, even in the 21st century", he said.

"Gandhiji lived by personal example and said that his life is his message. We can draw inspiration from his life and philosophy on sustainable development, self-reliance, empowerment of the marginalised and the push for ‘gram swarajya’. These themes in Gandhiji’s thought have become ever more relevant in the modern day. His life continues to be a beacon of light for the country, guiding our national progress", he added.
