On Mahatma Gandhi’s death anniversary, All Indians Matter launches a six-part series that takes you on a journey through the last years of his life. Those years were a saga by themselves, in many ways the most dramatic of his extraordinary journey and also perhaps the most significant for a nation about to be born. His end was India’s beginning. That’s why these years are so important. This series was born from a realisation that Gandhi is more relevant today than ever before. His life and message are still powerful and have the potential to provide solutions to India’s gravest challenges: sectarian division, a crumbling rural economy, inequality, caste... Gandhi told Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan, the freedom fighter known as ‘Frontier Gandhi’, once: “A satyagrahi knows no failure.” That is why perhaps the greatest satyagrahi of all is still trying, even beyond the grave, to tell us something, to perhaps start anew. For this series, we are in conversation with Tushar Gandhi, great grandson of the Mahatma, a chronicler of the Mahatma’s life and a peace activist. Follow Bingepods on Instagram for more updates.

  • Gandhi – The Final Years, Episode 1: Of love, loss and the shattering of a dream
    2023/01/29
    Mahatma Gandhi’s last years were the most tumultuous of his life. They marked his greatest triumphs, his greatest losses and the crumbling of his dream. India achieved Independence in 1947, but at the cost of Partition and enormous suffering. Gandhi’s final years show us why India took the path that it did. They are a study in how one of the most effective mass leaders the world has seen turned into a lonely pilgrim. This series, Gandhi – The Final Years, launches on his death anniversary. This episode begins in 1942. Gandhi had given two clarion calls: “Quit India” and “Do or die”. World War 2 had swept through Europe, plunging the world into danger and uncertainty. The British Empire was shaken and it was accepted that it was no longer sustainable. Gandhi’s broadside against the Raj unnerved the British and he was arrested on August 9, 1942. We are in conversation with Tushar Gandhi, great grandson of the Mahatma, a great chronicler of the Mahatma’s life and a peace activist.

  • Gandhi – The Final Years, Episode 2: Death and resurrection in Noakhali
    2023/01/29
    As Jinnah declared Direct Action Day, India feared a tsunami of violence. Mahatma Gandhi struggled to hold together the unwinding threads of unity that he had so painstakingly woven. At the concluding session of the Muslim League Council, Jinnah declared: “Today we bid goodbye to Constitutional methods… We have forged a pistol and are in a position to use it.” Nowhere was the communal carnage worse than in Noakhali. Once again, Gandhi showed that miracles may be slow in the making but, where there is determination, they are possible. We are in conversation with Tushar Gandhi, great grandson of the Mahatma, a great chronicler of the Mahatma’s life and a peace activist.

  • Gandhi – The Final Years, Episode 3: Coming full circle in Bihar
    2023/01/29
    It was in Bihar that Mahatma Gandhi had made his first mark, politically speaking, after returning from South Africa in 2015. It was where the Champaran Satyagraha gave him an unbreakable grassroots connection with the poorest Indians. In 1946, alongside the bloodletting in Bengal, there was a pogrom in Bihar. If in Bengal it was the Hindus who were targeted, in Bihar it was the Muslims. The time was ripe, this time for Hindu extremists, to fan the flames and urge Biharis to take revenge on Muslims for what had happened in Bengal. All the dry powder needed was a spark. We are in conversation with Tushar Gandhi, great grandson of the Mahatma, a great chronicler of the Mahatma’s life and a peace activist.
