But what makes freethinking humans hopeful is the vitality of humanistic thoughts and ideas. During a period in the history of great India, Mahatma Gandhi led his nation to drive out colonial forces from his country. Disseminating and promoting unity, amity and friendship, seeking justice and legitimacy among the people of any opinion and religion is one of the salient characteristics of Gandhi which led his country towards independence. It is obvious that excellence of human prosperity in the future strictly hinges on the rule of law and establishment of justice.”
