Nehru- Gandhi combination weakened India !!!
by Ganapati Hegde on Oct 09, 2007 12:46 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Gandhi was always trying to appease Muslims at the cost of Hindus. Gandhi, surely was an anti-Hindu, just like the Congis are.

When Gandhi was assassinated and his body was cremated, the then Pakistani Ambassador to India was requested permission to immerse the ashes in the Indus river in Pakistan. The humiliating reply India got from the ambassador was

"we will not allow the immersion of the ashes of a Kafir".

So, much for Gandhi's love for Muslims. The Congis are again playing the same game. I wish there was a strong political party like the BJP, at the time of Indian Independence, who would have taken care of India's national interest.

We would not have lost out a portion of Kashmir to Pakistan and we would have faced humiliating defeat at the hands of Chinese.

IF Sardar Patel, was made the Prime Minister of India, instead of Nehru, India would have charted a different course altogether, and by this time, we would have been economically well developed.

Nehru- Indira Gandhi screwed our economy.

It is unfortunate that those who do not have an idea about Gandhian philosophy, make comments on this forum. I really dont understand why his philosophy is only looked through the prism of Hindu-Muslim relationship. As mentioned in this mail, if the Pakistan ambassador refused the immersion of Ashes, how come it can be considered as failure of Gandhian Philosophy. Think another angle, if they have accepted the immersion, what these people would have been saying about Gandhi. Remember Gandhi and his principles are beyond Religion and Geographical Boundaries.

Also it has become fashion to look at the incidents happened in the past with the present eye. On hindsight many things will look wrong. But one should understand that is History and we should learn from it rather than castigate the people involved in it. The history is full of If's and But's. JAI HIND

Gandhi and Gandhism are offered as cure-all even when it is lost their relevence - it is not practiced by even its ardent advocates(except appeasement of Jehadis). They can't face even factual assessment of its flaws or criticism. Any criticism is labeled as hatred. It has acquired all the trappings of supremacist ideology of intolerance and hatred of dissent.
