In 1895, Mahatma Gandhi, along with other Indians, established the Natal Indian Congress to fight against racial discrimination.

- The Natal Indian Congress was formed in Natal, South Africa, and served as an early organization advocating for the rights of Indian immigrants living in the region.

- It was one of the first political movements led by Gandhi, who lived in South Africa then, where he worked as a lawyer.

- The Natal Indian Congress focused on addressing various issues faced by the Indian community, including racial discrimination, oppressive laws, and denial of civil rights. Gandhi's involvement in the organization marked the beginning of his journey as a social and political activist, and it laid the groundwork for his later involvement in the Indian independence movement in India.

- The experience and lessons he learned during his time with the Natal Indian Congress played a crucial role in shaping his principles of non-violence, civil disobedience, and his commitment to fighting injustice and discrimination.
