You are portraying Gandhi as an elected leader of the people who is responsible for their lives!
Please show some or any evidence where it shows Gandhi as an elected official.
Gandhi was a baniya who felt humiliated by the treatment he got in South Africa even after studying to be a barrister at law.
All he did was stand up to a ticket collector on a train ride. BFD!
The real tragedy is that the Indian people fell for this gimmick and were fooled into thinking that he was the answer to their prayers!
Gandhi was not obliged to take up the leadership of the freedom movement. If that was the case, then all baniyas like you would have been government babus post-independence instead of the pee-mps your are now!!
