India’s History -

Filed under: History of India, HeatherR, 6V —— heatherr @ 9:07 am

India’s history of events start at 2000 B.C. and keeps going. India is a very historical place. India was also home to a great leader Gandhi. Gandhi’s family was very inportant also. His daughter was the first woman prime minister in India. Also his wife Kasturbaitried to help the poor in India and died in gandhis arms.

Mohandas Karamachand Gandhi was born on October 2, 1869. When I first studied Mohandas Karamachand Gandhi. well he was just another person. Then I realized as I kept reading about him that he was a very good leader and I understood what was so special about him. The thing that made him so special was that he was a loyal and great leader. Also he believed in indian freedom. Mohandas Karamachand Gandhi wanted all of india to be ruled by the indians’. mohandas died on January 30, 1948 when he was illegidly shot 3 times in the knee. After he died everyone went into pain and shock.let’s just say he ment alot to his people.

    Hi!

    Your efforts on Indian histroy is commendable. However, I just want to say that India’s first woman Prime Minister, Indira Gandhi was not Mahatma Gandhi’s daughter. She was the daughter of Jawaharlal Nehru. It was a seperate incident where Indira Gandhi had to borrow the surname “Gandhi” from Mahatma Gandhi.

    Cheers,

    Asim
