5. Role Play
Nakshtra, Iwardhan, Jay, Kaustubh and Shoshaana
Nakshtra: Let’s now witness a heartfelt role play on Mahatma Gandhi’s principles and his
ultimate sacrifice.
Introduction Scene: "Mahatma Gandhi, known as Bapu, believed in the power of truth
(Satya) and non-violence (Ahimsa). For him, truth meant living with integrity, and non-violence
meant love and understanding, even toward opponents. He showed the world that peaceful
resistance could conquer hate and injustice. Let us now witness his inspiring journey and
ultimate sacrifice."
Scene 1: Gandhiji Leading a Protest
Iwardhan:
“Bapu, the police are here. What should we do?”
Kaustubh:
“Remain calm. Remember, we are here to fight injustice with peace, not anger.”
Nakshtra:
“Stop this protest! Disperse immediately, or face consequences!”
Jay:
“But Bapu, they might harm us!”
Kaustubh:
“If they strike us, we will not strike back. Violence only leads to more violence. Let us show
them the power of non-violence.”
"An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind."
Nakshtra:
“Move back now, or we will use force!”
Kaustubh:
“Force cannot silence truth. We walk forward, not with weapons, but with courage and peace.”
Jay:
“Bapu, we are not afraid. We will stand together.”
Closing Scene:
Shoshaana:
“Mahatma Gandhi taught us that non-violence is not weakness; it is the greatest strength.”
Shoshaana:
“He believed that truth is the highest virtue, and we must live by it every day.”
Shoshaana:
“Bapu showed us that even the smallest actions, like spinning the charkha, can lead to big
changes.”
Shoshaana:
“He said, ‘Be the change you wish to see in the world.’ We must live by his example.”
Shoshaana:
“We are his legacy, and we must uphold truth and non-violence in our actions and words.”
(All students together):
“Let us follow Gandhi Ji’s path and create a world of peace, unity, and love.”
