On 12 January 1948, Mahatma Gandhi began what would be his last fast, a profound act of non-violent resistance aimed at promoting peace and unity amidst the communal violence that plagued post-independence India.
At 78 years old, Gandhi's resolve remained unshaken as he sought to restore harmony between Hindus and Muslims, imploring the nation to embrace non-violence and reconciliation.
His fast was not just a plea for peace but a moral call to action, urging Indians to transcend religious divisions and work towards a unified and compassionate society.
