Gandhi: How relevant is he today?

As Gandhi Jayanti approaches, a time when the nation reflects on Mahatma Gandhi’s legacy, we ask today’s generation if his principles still resonate with them. In a world driven by technology, changing traditions, and unique perspectives, do Gandhi’s ideals of non-violence, inclusivity, and truth hold relevance?

To explore this, The Free Press Journal has reached out to Gen Z to understand their views on Gandhi philosophy and whether they connect or disconnect with the Father of the Nation and his timeless teachings.

Kausha Modi, a 21-year-old student, shares her perspective. “Many of us can relate to Gandhi’s ideas of sustainability, inclusivity, and his long-term vision. His beliefs in non-violence, religious pluralism, and poverty alleviation are still relevant today,” she says. Kausha highlights that Gandhi’s legacy continues to resonate, especially in addressing societal challenges like communal harmony and environmental concerns.
