Default Gandhigiri

guys ever since the movie "lage raho munnabhai " released,there has been a hue and cry over "GANDHIGIRI" across the media..

i have myself read a number of articles abt gandhigiri in the newspapers and some news channels also carried out some spl programs on gandhigiri..

now for my question...

is gandhigiri really working in the streets of the country??
have u ever come across any incidence which can be related to the GANDHIGIRI
as shown in the movies???

do inform your views...

Actually, the main base of Gandhism (I don't like to call is Gandhigiri ) is embarassmment caused to the other party. If the other party is completely thick skinned and doesn't bother about what others' opinion about him, it can't work!

Media in my opinion just needs something to hype upon so that people watch their channels. Just as spironox said "all they care is MoNeY honey!!!" This is a state for everyone in this country!

Well I personally dont believe in Gandhism but what I do believe in is that if we need to stop this corruption from rotting the roots of our system, we need to stop it from the grass root level. Like the piracy article in Digit said "Just because everyone does it is not an excuse for you to do it".

wow guys...not one of you have said that it works really nice...

BTW any guys from PUNE here???
cos i had read in the news papers that in PUNE some of the traffic cops were following GANDHIGIRI and giving roses to those who've been caught on the wrong side of traffic rules along with a hand out saying not to repeat the mistake..

is it really true???

Gandhiji's concept of Satyagraha is something that ensures success. It can never fail.
However the movies shows the whole concept to entertain the crowd and they have suceeded quite well.
To understand what exactly is GandhiVaad you must go through his literature like 'My experiments with truth' which is still in print but cant say when it will stop.
Also Mahadevbhai's diaries which are out of print are very good if you can find them.

But you want a quick view of all this read 'Individuals, Intstitutions and Processes' by Arun Shourie you will understand what exactly is gandhivaad and why it will always succeed. Also it is impossible for a normal human being to implment it.

Exactly, The main power of Gandhigiri is that your opponent is a human and has all the feelings that a normal human being can have so it is expected towrok in 95% of cases.

Perfect catch bat!! Mr neilsequeira, jis thali mein khate ho, usi mein chhed karte ho?! I guess, you should desist from making such comments about Indians in an Indian Tech Forum. Search for a Paki forum and post it there!!

hmm yes it is equivalent to gandhigiri... i guess helping out a guy to get over from his misery is certainly gandhigiri.. but if someone else feels otherwise...then i guess it can be called "MOD-GIRI "
