Every year the country celebrates 30 January as the death anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi. Also, Bapu's death anniversary is celebrated as Martyr's Day every year.
Father of the Nation Mahatma Gandhi was shot by Nathuram Godse on 30 January 1948. Nathuram Godse shot Mahatma Gandhi while he was going for a prayer meeting at Birla House in Delhi. Mahatma Gandhi was 78 years old at that time.
When Bapu was shot, the last words that came out of his mouth were 'Hey Ram'. Godse did not agree with Gandhi's views on the partition of India.
The country pays tribute to Mahatma Gandhi by celebrating Bapu's death anniversary i.e. 30th January as Martyr's Day . On this occasion, the President of India, the Vice President, the Prime Minister and the Defense Minister reach Gandhiji's Samadhi at Rajghat in the capital Delhi.
