This Gandhi is no relation to Mahatma Gandhi.

Sure Gandhi endorsed the use of violence when it suited his beliefs & interests.Like most sensible politicians.He offered unconditional support to the British war effort against the Nazis if they gave dominion status .

About supporting Subash Chandra Bose,most people will tell you that Gandhi virtually expelled Bose from the Congress party years before he tied up with the Axis.Do you seriously think that if Gandhi supported him,he wouldn’t have called for an uprising in India-which would have virtually frozen the war effort in Asia?????????Gandhi was a shrewd politician who understood Bose’s popularity,but opposed his strategies.

The fellow who wrote this piece seriously needs to do his research.Gandhi was dead months before the Indian army took Hyderabad with very little bloodshed.& The whole world knows that the Indian army was sent to Kashmir after it was invaded by Pakistan.

Yes, but Mahatma strenuously supported her marriage to Feroze Gandhi.
