The Greatest Indian after Mahatma Gandhi

The Greatest Indian is a poll launched by HISTORY TV18 & CNN IBN which is set to trigger a national debate on the one question, "Who is the greatest Indian after Mahatma Gandhi?" The show format is based on a path-breaking series featured on BBC called ‘The Greatest Briton’. Launched in 2002 in the UK, the initiative reached out to millions of viewers and broke significant viewership records there. An astounding 21 countries have successfully adopted this format since then, and it now promises to create History here in India too!
