Upon his return to India from South Africa in 1915, Mahatma Gandhi was advised by his political guru, Gopal Krishna Gokhale, to spend a year traveling across India to understand the country and its people before engaging in active political life.

Gokhale’s advice was crucial for Gandhi, allowing him to connect with the diverse realities of India and build a base of understanding and support before launching major campaigns.

Gokhale founded the Servants of India Society and was a leading moderate voice in the Indian National Congress. Tilak, Lajpat Rai, and B.C. Pal were prominent nationalist leaders, part of the extremist faction (Lal-Bal-Pal), but Gokhale held the position of Gandhi’s political mentor.
