Introduction:
Gandhiji was the most influential and revered of all the leaders who participated in the freedom struggle, that characterisation is not misplaced. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi returned to his homeland after two decades of residence abroad in January 1915. These years had been spent for the most part in South Africa, where he went as a lawyer, and in time became a leader of the Indian community in that territory.
Body:
South Africa was the crucible that forged Gandhi’s identity as a political activist and was an important prelude to his return to India.
Major learning in South Africa:
India was also under the similar yoke of colonialism and Gandhiji’s prior experience of freedom struggle in Africa helped him quickly adapt to the Indian conditions and take forward the shaky national movement that was in 1916.
Conclusion:
As the historian Chandran Devanesan has remarked, South Africa was “the making of the Mahatma”. The twenty- one long years that Gandhi lived in South Africa, had a considerable influence on the formation of his political ideologies and the philosophies of his life.
