Dadabhai Naoroji (4th September 1825 - 30th June 1917), known as the Grand Old Man of India, was a parsi intellectual, educator, cotton trader and an early Indian political leader. He was a Member of Parliament in the British House of Commons between 1892 and 1895, and the first Asian to be a British M.P. Naoroji is also credited with the founding of the Indian National Congress, along with A.O. Hume and Dinshaw Edulji Wacha. His book Poverty and Un-British Rule in India brought attention to the draining of India's wealth into Britain. Naoroji was a mentor to both Gopala Krishna Gokhale and Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.
