Though this has not been officially declared, but Maharishi Dayanand Saraswati, the founder of Arya Samaj is considered as the 'Rashtrapitamah' as he laid the foundation of the freedom movement in India and Mahatma Gandhi followed his path to get India's independence. Mahatma Gandhi, the Rashtrapita (Father of the Nation) is said to have reaped what Swami Dayanand Saraswati had sown for the Nation for its freedom (Swarajya).

Since, Mahatma Gandhi has been declared as Rashtrapita (Father of Nation), Swami Dayanand for sure can be called Rashtrapitamah (Grandfather of Nation) - he being a social and political father of the 'Father of the Nation' (Rashtrapita).

Gandhi said that Balganga Dhar Tilak was his political Guru and Tilak had learnt the lessons of Swarajya from Dada Bhoi Naroaji whereas it is the historical fact that Naroaji had learnt these lessons from Swami Dayanand Saraswati through his writings (Satyarth Prakash) as the historians write.

Gandhi's practice of Ahimsa, Nonviolence, Truth, his fight against untouchability and emancipation of women and their education were all the givings and teachings of Swami Dayanand Saraswati.

So it is but imperative that Swami Dayanand Saraswati be addressed and called as Grandfather of Indian Nation or Rashtrapitamah.
