Best Answer

Rabindranath Tagore

It was Nautamlal Bhagawanji Mehta (Kamdar) first bestowed the name "Mahatma" on Mohandas Gandhi. He was the first to do so on January 21, 1915 in Jetpur, at Kamribai School, India. For proof and to see actual document and picture of Mahatma Gandhi and Nautamlal B Mehta( KAMDAR) .

Also please Note Mahatma Gandhiji met Gurudev Tagore first time only in the month of April 1915. Therefore, it is impossible for Tagore to be part of this Natinal Gandhi Musume of India in New Delhi has approved to display actual documentation and picture of Nautamlal.B Mehta.
