Best Answer

Karamchand Gandhi and Putlibai were the parents of Mahatma Gandhi.
His Roots: The family belonged to the Vaishya caste of farmers and tradesmen in the coastal town of Porbandar near Bombay, where Mohandas's paternal great-grandfather had established himself as a grocer. Gandhi, a Gujarati word for "grocer," was the surname taken by Mohandas's father, Karamchand, in obedience to a British edict intended to simplify the census.

Mohandas's mother, Putlibai (1822-1891)
