Born to refashion a new civilisation Mahatma Gandhi was born to refashion a new civilisation and make the people of India the vehicle of that civilisation. No span of individual mortal life-long as it was by the mercy of Providence- could suffice for anything more than laying the foundations. With the disappearance of his physical body it has become the glorious destiny of his country and his people to build upon the foundations he has laid a structure of which he as well as humanity may be proud.
