Rajaji was a local lawyer, the Brahmin tamil community has prasied him a lot better than foreign educated and practised gandhi and nehru and many other. the tamil brahmins simply speak high of their achievements and make a mountain out of mole.
I cant see any achievemnet of Rajaji, he is a caste oreinted person who made the seceretatariat a simple brahmin house. he introduced the Kulakalvi thittam.
the british used him rightly the accident of him becoming governor general is similar to Deva Gowda becoming PM and Pannerselvam becoming tamilnadu CM
he doesnt have any track record of any achievemnts prior to being givernor general and later used that as a stepping stone as back door to be an appointed CM. he doesnt have any other record supporting it
