Gandhi, Nehru, Sardar, Subhash
by Dheeraj Akula on Jan 30, 2008 01:18 PM   Permalink | Hide replies


India would have been better without Gandhi and Nehru.

Sardar Vallabhai Patel and Subhash Chandra Bose were one billion times better than these people. India would have been a much more prosperous and advanced country with them.

Gandhi's "non-violence" is most ridiculous non-sense. Gandhi himself died a violent death. So, where is non-violence? We Indians talk about ideals and think that is sufficient. Talking and practically achieving are two different things.

When India achieved independence, many other countries became free at around the same time - without the help of Gandhi or similar people.

So, idiots like me being able to express our views and our country's independence can not be credited to Gandhi.

if non violence could get you freedom, then you must have freed in 1857.

When you say sardar and Subhash were better, you mean to say Gandhi & Nehru were good.

Shame on you

With due credit to Sardar and Netaji, Gandhian idealogy have been valued world over. It is truly a powerful weapon. It is just not non-violence, it was integrated in right proportion with non-cooperation; mass awareness; mass uprising; mass movement; self sustainability; involving women at every level of fight; Establishing the objective at diplomatic level etc.

It paid off. This strategy is practiced world over in some form or other today. South Africa; Abolishing racism against Blacks in America; Green Peace movement are big examples.

Violence would give quick results. But it will never last.

Yaa. Sometimes Non-violence has price in the form of violent death. But it does not mean that violence is the only solution. That is absurdity.
