Pls go through the history before commenting. There are numerous factors on account of those parameters India (We people-especially Hindu's sacrifice) we achieved independence.
India is sure a great Nation. Look who is against whom? A chairman of the Khadi Gramodyog Board (I thought Khadi is related to MK Gandhi, Not Nehru-Gandhi Familiy though) is accused of using derogatory words against Gandhi. The chairman might have forgotten that he got this job, because of M.K. Gandhi. And congress accusing the chairman, when it is following another Gandhi (Though not related to MK Gandhi in anyway). Gandhi had faught his entire life to end the proxy rule of Foreigners. But congress is now hell bent to imposed another proxy rule of forigener.

Khadi Gramodyog should be shut down. The Chairman did not get his job because of MKG.He presumably got it because of influence or capacity to head the obsolete institution that does more harm than good for Indian artisans. That no one can question MKG in a democratic nation is unbelievable. Must we all agree just because this is a convenient excuse for the politicians to collect votes from the rural areas? It's like the adulterous westerners who proclaim they are Christians then break every commandment that is at the base of Christianity and have never been to church. It is like all those hypocritical so called followers of Ram who are least bothered about their fellow men. It is as hypocritical as the Muslims who preach equality and treat their women folk like slaves. Our world is full of opportunists. The sooner we demand accounts from our leaders and insist that they follow a political programme that will uplift our poor and displaced, educate the illiterate and push for adequate shelter and food over every Indian of any caste, the sooner we will progress without having to fall back on myths, superstitions and concocted history.
