"Why do we celebrate Gandhi Jayanti ? Gandhi was a tool of British imperialists."

I am a bengali and inside our homes we were very practical about Gandhi as Noone actually reverred him..we are till date saddened how Netaji was sidelined and ultimately suppressed. One of my dear teachers told us that when Netaji came in the picture Gandhi had no place to hide as he.lost terribly consecutively in the INC elections...

Netaji (Shubash Chandrabose) won with greatest majority..Gandhi secured 2 votes...but this is not mentioned in our history books. Also Netajis idea of seeking independence was looked down upon and never supported.

Subhas Chandra Bose

We lost such great people in the name of Gandhi nehru and their pacifying ideologies and actions. I always wondered why we Indians alone begged the "Independence" in the name of non-violence. The minority appeasement and Hindu bashing by our political leaders are the continuation of that same "non-violence" legacy.

Yes its only after 2014 we are able to discuss the topic of Gandhi family openly.
