WHY SOME PEOPLE HATE GANDHI


Dear Visitors
When I surf in the net I came across an interesting article on Gandhi
About why some people hate Gandhi  by an unknown author and his
Reasoning . It is the opinion of the author only and not mine .Hence
I request you to give your views on this forward

Gandhji was a brilliant statesman , a master strategist
And possibly one of the greatest leaders in india ever
Had .Yet some people who knows the old history hate
Him . Here are the reason behind their dislike

Gandhi and the jews  
According to Gandhi jews should have given heroic
Response to Hitler by committing mass suicide . This
Has aroused the world and the german against Hitler

Rejection of the revolutionaries
When Madanlal Dhingara, a true patriot kill Sir Curzon
The aide to the secretary of state in india in London ,he
Was excuted  and Bhagat singh was hanged for 
Throwing bomb to the central assembly . After these
Incidents Gandhi wrote in his Young india
“These heroes had conquered the fear of death ,let
Us bow to them 1000 times for their heroism . But we
 should not imitate their act in our land of millions of
destitute and crippled people. If we take to the practice
of seeking justice through murder , there will be a
terrifying situation ,our poor people will become
victims of of our atrocities . by making adharma of
violence  we shall be reaping the fruit of our own
action .

And when the countryside was seething with anger
Over the execution of Dhinakara and Bhagat singh
Gandhi words came almost a shocker . A more
Serious allegation is that Gandhi never forced the
British to commute Bahgat singh’s sentence .

Failure of the non co operative movement s
From 1920-1947 Gandhiji prematurely ended two
Of the three big struggles that he launched
a)    A non co operative movement
b)    Civil disobedience movement
And the third one was Quit india movement

Forcing undemocratic changes with in congress

Crisis at tripuri , ousting of Nethaji
In 1928 Nethaji  a charismatic leader from the left
Had been the choice as the president of congress
How ever the top leadership of the congress working
Committee decided counter Nethaji with Gandhi
Has decided to put up Pattabi Seetharamayya as the
Candidate against Nethaji and despite the strong support
From the congress and Gandhi Nethaji won the election
And Gandhi declared “ Pattabi’s defeat is my defeat “
Soon Gandhi supporters resigned from the congress
Working committee and Nethaji found himself isolated
And with out co operations from  Gandhi resigned with in a
Few months and decided to launch his own front

Foisting Nehru as the leader of the congress
And Indian first prime minister

Every thing started in early1946 when Indian national
Congress had to select a new president . It was
Accepted that the leader chosen would become the
First prime minister independence india .  Three
Candidates were in the race Acharya kripalani ,
Nehru and sardar Patel . Sardar was easily the most
Popular , every one knew his efficiency and toughness
For tackling difficult situations and 12 out of 19 congress
Committee has nominated him .  And right from the
Beginning Gandhi favored the inexperienced Nehru
And his reasoning was that his bristish education
Was an asset and would be easier to carry on the
Negotiation with british . another point Gandhi made
Was that while Patel would agree to work as Nehru’s
Deputy ,the reverse might not happened
Eventually in difference to Gandhi , Kripalani , nominate
Nehru and withdrew from the race . Patel has no choice
But to follow his colleague so that Nehru could be
Elected unopposed . And Dr, Rajendra Prasad later
In his statement said “ Gandhi has once again
Sacrificed his trusted lieutenant Patel for the sack
Of glamorous Nehru

Why was Gandhi not given a harsher punishment
By the british ?

Most of the Indian revolutionists were sentenced
To very harsh punishments . Those exiled to the
Andaman cellular jail were Batu keswar Dutt,
Tilak Veer Savakar and Sohan singh .  how
Ever Gandhi and the top leaders of congress
Were never subjected to such harsh punishment
If the british thought that Gandhi was as dangerous
As Bhagat Singh why was not he tried under IPC
For waging war against the country and subsequently
Punished severely ?
Here comes another theory popularly known as
“THE SAFTETY VALVE THEORY “  in fact  the 1885
Birth of the congress has been alleged for providing
Indian with a platform to bring out their resentm,ent
Vocally . Its aim was to divert the minds of Indians
From any sort of violence , Gandhi and the political
Leadership of the congress could be seen as an
Extension of the safety valve and keeping the
British rule immune from violence and any real
Threat from anarchy.

Gandhi views on the hindu caste system

While social reformers of their time were trying
To break apart the practice of caste system
Gandhi was a staunch defender of this system
Arya Samaj , a hindu movement that aimed to
Caste boundaries came under especially
Scathing attack  Gandhi quote was
“ A shudra cannot be called a Brahmin even
If he possesses all the quality of a Brahmin by
Inheritance . He should never claim his right ‘
Other than the varna in which he was born
