Nana Sita (also known as Nanabhai) was born in 1898 in Matwadi, a town in Gujarat, India, and grew up in a family involved in the Indian resistance movement. He went to South Africa in 1913 to study bookkeeping, and lived for some time with J. P. Vyas in Pretoria. Shortly after his arrival, Mahatma Gandhi arrived in Pretoria for negotiations with General Jan Smuts, and lived in the same house as Sita for almost two months. The interaction with Gandhi had a great influence on his life and he was a great advocate of passive resistance. He served many prison sentences for refusing to leave his home, after the suburb where he lived with his family for 44 years was proclaimed white residents.
