Motivated by idealism and genuine sacrifice, each connected to Gandhi and representing diverse schools of thought, they risked fatal punishment for their activism, even as they made invaluable contributions to India's Independence struggle.

Gandhi's non violence is that of a man standing in front of an armory saying "Let's talk". 300 million people just telling you they won't obey you is violence enough. The British were not driven from India, they were shoved out.
lmao your a moron if you think that or even beilve these losers
Subas Chandra Bose gave us indpendence Ghandi claimed credit for it thats just facts
GSNDHIJI'S LONG POLITICAL CAREER BUILT THE POLITICS IN INDIA previously there was No P🎉POLITICS as such.
What about Indian scholars who see Ghandi as a tool of the British, that he was part of there establishment working in their interests.
Those are RSS scholars.
For British, Gandhi was their man in India to protect the British Empire. That was the reason his statue was erected not far from the statue of Robert Clive the founder of the British Empire.
@@Shaggy-8392 Was Ellen Wilkinson, the education minister of the UK in 1945, who said, Gandhi is the best policeman of ours in India, also a RSS woman?????
@@DipakBose-bq1vv exactly, his statue in london is with other figures that served the empire. Not sure which statue you refer to.
They need to take their medication
