Mahatma Gandhi returned to India from South Africa in January 1915. Following the advice of his political guru Gopal Krishna Gokhale, he spent the initial year travelling across India to understand the country’s situation. His first major public speech in India after his return was delivered at the inauguration ceremony of the Banaras Hindu University (BHU) on February 4, 1916. This event provided him a national platform and is considered his first significant public appearance in Indian politics before he started leading specific movements.
