Mahatma Gandhi Nominated Five Times for Nobel Peace Prize but Never Awarded
On Mahatma Gandhi's 157th birth anniversary, leaders across India and diplomatic missions worldwide paid tribute to his principles of truth, non-violence, and peace. Gandhi, born on October 2, 1869, was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize five times between 1937 and 1948 but never received the award. Later Nobel Committee members publicly regretted this omission, with the 1989 award to the Dalai Lama partly seen as a tribute to Gandhi's legacy.
