PrintWeek India Awards celebrates Mahatma Gandhi's print legacy on 2 October


…What many people in the print industry do not know is, besides being the father of the nation, Mahatma Gandhi can also be called the father of Indian printing.

Consider the facts: Mahatma Gandhi was an astute printer, publisher and journalist. Gandhi edited Indian Opinion, Young India, Navjivan and Harijan.

On 7 September 1919, Gandhi bought out the Navjivan weekly from Natwar printing press which is located near Khamasa Gate in Ahmedabad.
