In 2007, the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) declared Mahatma Gandhi's birthday (Gandhi Jayanti) as the International Day of Non-violence.
President Ram Nath Kovind paid homage to Mahatma Gandhi at Rajghat on Gandhi Jayanti and also appealed that, “The 151st anniversary is a good occasion to think through our priorities in the light of Gandhiji’s life and thought, and prepare ourselves again to hear his voice in our hearts.”
