He gave up a London practice to fight the might of an Empire whose sun was famed never to set. He spent half his life in a dhoti, walking miles for days, fasting weeks, and lodged in jail for months. These days managing teams is a KPI; He mobilized 300 million people, in times when there was no social media, since Zuckerberg was still a young lad in his previous birth! Gandhi. I wonder, if all those who criticize him from the cordons of Z-plus security and public-sponsored palatial mansions, ever lead a life of dhoti-clad austerity, the way He did? Partition? Well, we have an even bigger exercise in partition these days in the name of religion, caste, money, real estate, language, gender, etc; all these are being spread in the most vicious manner by his own lineage and critics alike! Gandhi. Bande mein tha dum. Nahin maante? No problem.
