Abdul Ghaffar Khan’s birth anniversary is celebrated in India every year on February 6. Abdul Ghaffar Khan Birth Anniversary 2025 falls on Thursday, February 6. Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khar, also known as Badshah Khan, was a prominent freedom fighter who strongly opposed the partition of India. He was born on February 6, 1890, into a wealthy Pashtun family. He was a devout Muslim and a spiritual leader who was renowned for his nonviolent opposition. Due to similar ideals and his close friendship with Mahatma Gandhi, he was also called ‘Frontier Gandhi.’ He advocated for Hindu-Muslim unity and even established the Khudai Khidmatgar, an anti-colonial nonviolent resistance movement, in 1929. The movement’s popularity resulted in various crackdowns on Khan and his supporters. During some years in the 1960s and 1970s, he was exiled or jailed. In 1987, the Indian government honoured him with the Bharat Ratna, India’s highest civilian award.
