He advocated resistance to the British rule using non violence means, the cause was to free the poverty stricken Indians from unfair British rule. In reality his last protest was in 1942 and India got independance in 1947, his movement was overhyped and only played a small part in the independance of India from Britain, but gets high accolades for being peaceful and non violent. The real reason the British left was because they had milked India of its riches and had nothing left except for disgruntled subjects, as well as Britain was facing a crisis econmoically due to the world war.

Mohandas Gandhi was not only an Indian freedom struggle leader but also a prominent Hindu religious figure. His practice of Hindu religion and role in freedom struggle endeared him to people across India and was considered 'Mahatma' (Superior Soul) by Hindus for his preaching of 'Ahimsa' (non-violence) in politics and freedom struggle in line with Hindu religion.

Gandhi played an important role in Indian history because he did a lot for India in the time when India was ruled by the British Empire. He thought that India should be independent but he wanted to do that with politeness rather than being harsh. Instead the British Empire insulted him and embarrassed him.

Through 'passive resistance' he changed attitudes and was instrumental in India gaining its independence.

He was important because he made India its own dependent nation by having non-violent protests and kept having them until India became its own dependent nation.
