These people are delusional - all this crap about Saint Gandhi single-handedly getting 'independence' for India - had the Brits not been pummeled by Hitler and barely saved her skin only because of the intervention of Uncle Sam, and her economy and infrastructure not been shot to hell, Britain would have persisted in keeping Churchill's promise - "we shall never give up India", and no amount of satygraha or fasting would have moved them to abandoning their 'Jewel in the Crown'. It was more happenstance - WWII, which forced India's independence, and not just Gandhi.
