A am attaching a news clipping regarding how Gandhiji became Mahatma. It is self-explanatory.

We have noticed on your website/News Paper that you claim that Tagore first bestowed the name "Mahatma" on Mohandas Gandhi. However, there is no known evidence of this statement. Even the Gandhi Museum New Delhi does have proof of this. Actually, Nautamlal Bhagvanji Mehta ( Kamdar ) was the first to do so on January 21, 1915 in Jetpur, India.

For more info Tagore met Mahatma Gandhi first time in the month of April 1915. Where as Gandhiji visited Jetpur on 1/21/1915 and at the above web site actual picture of Gandhiji in that meeting as well as actual citation where Mahatma was written to Mr M.K. Gandhi.
