Jokes aside, Gandhi was too political and contributed little to the independence
of India to deserve any title. He even called for admittance of Indian lads in the
British army to serve Britain in World Wars. Had it not been the huge British
economic and military losses in WWII, India would not have earned her
independence in 1947.
Non-violence is a method too impotent to move governments, let alone change them.
We shouldn't even celebrate the Indepencence Day, because we didn't earn it.
We were literally begging for it.
