Namaskar dosto! Welcome back to Baatcheet & Short Stories with Roshni.
In Episode 7 of Mohandas K. Gandhi's autobiography, "An Autobiography: The Story of My Experiments with Truth" , we explore one of the most human and relatable phases of Mahatma Gandhi’s life. After returning from England as an educated barrister, young Gandhi sets up his legal practice in Bombay (Mumbai). But the reality of courtrooms is far from easy.
Listen as Roshni narrates the famous, agonizing incident of Gandhi’s first courtroom appearance (Mamibai's case)—where he stood up to cross-examine a witness, lost his nerve completely, sat back down in sheer embarrassment, and refunded his client’s fees. Discover how a man who couldn't speak in a small court grew to command the voice of a nation.
