    Mahatma Gandhi is still much relevant. Particularly his principles of Truth , if prevails in our politicians, country would prosper like anything. His passion for service of down troden, his vision of gram -swaraj would bring in much desired rural development.

    ...everything differs from person to person. Mahatma Gandhi is relevant for me and many others....it's up to the person.

    "Be the change you want to see in the world" - Gandhi... Of course, he's relevant. If everyone follows this one principle of his, India will be a greater country than it is now.

    @srinuthethename: Mahatma Gandhi is not irrelevant.. Its just people do not want to settle down things with peace .. they are becoming more and more aggressive may be like you.. You have showed your anger by just mere name of M.K. Gandhi.. But not to forget what all he has done for the country..

    After seeing the consequences of Anna Hazare revolution and fight for freedom that forces to introduce the Jan Lokpal Bill and that too without doing any violent activity. I think Mahatma Gandhi is relevant in today's time as well as no one has the power to get this bill passed with violent activity. If someone take action and show anger being violent then people would simply consider them terrorist or people from differet party that paves way to such agitations. To me, M.K. Gandhi is relevant nowadays as well.

    Gandhiji will remain always and everywhere relevant because the ideologies and values he walked with would work almost in any scenario. Its just that people in today's world find it difficult to go with those principles because the harsh conditions make it hard for people to walk with those principles. Nevertheless, they still hold good to carry out tasks if one is determined to follow them.

    I personally feel that Gandhian philosophy is no more relevant because of many resons.One such reason is Corruption.Many of the Indians have become so greedy that they have taken the path of corruption to earn more.Moral values are no more significant in today's world for many of them.Corruption has to be rooted out,it is only possible if people revive their moral values and root out corruption.

    Mahatma Gandhi is known as the father of the Nation. But I personally do not find Gandhian philosophy relevant. The reason behind it is that Gandhi was against modernization and industrialization and in today's world without modernization and industrialization, the nation cannot progress or develop in any way. He as the Father of the Nation is still respected by every Indian and me being an India also respect him but i find his philosophy totally irrelevant in today's life.

    Mahatma Gandhi is still loved and respected by people of India and is still relevant. He is still remembered with immense respect and is considered as the father of the nation. India still follows his teaching of non-violence. Mahatma Gandhi is not only remembered on Gandhi Jayanti but he is remembered all throughout the year for his sacrifice for the nation.
