While present in India, Mahatma Gandhi and the British Government encountered many diverse people. People of different religion, different ethnic groups, and people of a lower social status were all different groups that Gandhi and the British Government encountered. As Gandhi was a strong willed peacemaker and the British Government was a powerful controlling force, their treatment of diverse people varied. While Gandhi’s treatment was non violent and well equally loving, the British’s treatment was more anarchistic and dishonorable. Both Gandhi and the British had power in India from 1915 to 1948 and both treated diverse people differently.
Gandhi’s native religion was Hinduism from the day he was born in 1869, but he still believed that people of all religions could live together peacefully as children of god. When it came to people of different religions, Gandhi treated them as if they were his own brother. In 1948 Gandhi met with a Muslim man who admitted to Gandhi that he had killed a Hindu child, Gandhi’s advice to the man was to adopt a Hindu baby and raise him as a son.
