He grew up in a poor family and had to work from a young age. He also spent time in South Africa, where he was exposed to the discrimination faced by Indians. These experiences made Gandhi believe that education was essential for social and economic progress.<\/p>\n<p>Gandhi&#8217;s ideas on basic education were put into practice through the establishment of the Nai Talim (New Education) movement. The Nai Talim movement was based on the principles of self-reliance, simplicity, and non-violence.
