Gandhi summoned Indians to seek their destiny, he influenced champions of equality in my own country : Obama

“Be the change that you wish to see in the world.I am greatly influenced by a man from your nation whose message of love and justice shows us the way ahead. Just as he (Gandhi) summoned Indians to seek their destiny, he influenced champions of equality in my own country including Martin Luther King Jr. Dr. King called Gandhi’s philosophy of non-violence and resistance as the only logical and moral approach in the struggle for justice and progress.”

On   150th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi
