http://www.mkgandhi-sarvodaya.org/speeches/speechMain.htm.
This article is quite interesting. It descries a speech given by Gandhi to the students of the
university. He explains to them that it is likely that soon India will have control over itself. He goes on to
say that while both the All-India Congress and the Muslim League will have suggestions on self
governing, he is more interested on what the students can come up with. This shows Gandhis tenacity,
doing anything he can to help and shape India.

other people of India and how he interacted with the public normally even if he was there leader. This
picture was a black and white photo of him. This would prove that Gandhi was an important man in the
19th/ 20th century because it shows that his leader ship would be strong since he spends time with the
public.

This source is a speech in which Gandhi promotes peace between India and Pakistan, warning
that both countries, must learn from the mistakes they made, to prevent a war which could destroy them
both, bringing the sub-continent under control of a outside party. He also speaks of an event in which
some Hindu refugees seized houses from Muslims for shelter. Gandhi put a stop to it when he found out.
This shows that Gandhi was a strong leader who promoted peace within the sub continent, and between
Hindus and Muslims.

This source became unavailable however it was a painted picture of him and his followers
walking on the salt march. He, being the leader of the group was ahead of his followers leading them to

Gandhi, Mohandmas. "On The Eve Of Historic Dandi March." Mkgandhi. Accessed September 28,
aaaaa2014. http://www.mkgandhi.org/speeches/dandi_march.htm.
A speech Gandhi delivered, in which he states that it will probably be his last speech/march,
because he thought he was likely to get arrested. He leaves it up to his followers to carry on his work if he
dies, or gets arrested, specifically, the task of trying to end the salt monopoly. This helps prove how much
of a dedicated, strong leader Gandhi was.
Gandhi, Mohandas. "Statement In The Great Trial of 1922." Mahatma Gandhi. Accessed September 28,
2014. http://www.mkgandhi.org/speeches/gto1922.htm.
This is a web site that has one of Gandhis famous speeches, this one being his statement in the
great trial of 1922. This speech was made during Gandhis trial, where he was tried for acute unrest and
hostility to government. This speech helps to prove that Gandhi was an extremely influential person in
India because; the government conducted the trial in order to stop him, which shows that he was a threat
to Indias government.

Gandhi speaks about conflict between Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs. He stated that texts before the
introduction of British rule talked of peace between the religions. Gandhi speculates that British power in
India is the source of pressure and conflict between religious groups within India. He also urges the
princes to take matters into their own hands, and participate in government as much as they can. This
show how much Gandhi influences India, because he changes the way people run the government,
promotes peace between religions, while hinting to British fault.
Gandhi, Mohandmas. "Speech On The Eve of The Last Fast." Mkgandhi. Accessed September 28, 2014.
aaaaahttp://www.mkgandhi.org/speeches/speechMain.htm.
A speech made the night before the Last Fast, in which Gandhi addresses some questions about
his fast. He is fasting in hopes of obtaining piece between Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs. He asks for
prayers of support. He establishes guidelines for the fast, for instance, he is allowed to drink water, with
or without salt, or lime added. He is prepared to die for what he believes in. This demonstrates how
dedicated he is, and how much he tries to install piece in the Indian subcontinent.

A letter to Englishmen, in hopes of conveying what the English Empire is like in India. Gandhi
talks about all the ways he has supported England in the past, listing several times he risked his life in
support of the Empire. But recent events caused him to stop believing in British good intentions, leading
Gandhi to make the decision of starting a peaceful, non-cooperation movement. This is significant
because it shows Gandhi first starting to resist British control, and begin leading the people of India to
freedom
