2. Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar: He fought for women's rights and persuaded the British government to legalize widow remarriage.
3. Mahatma Gandhi: He led the freedom movement of India and created the method of nonviolent resistance to the British rule.
4. Vallabhai Patel: He was the first home minister of India and led the efforts to unify all the princely states into the Indian union.
5. Jawaharlal Nehru: He was the first prime minister of India. He established the basis of India as democratic secular country.
