JUSTICE KATJU ON GANDHI
Justice Katju is closer to the bitter truth. Briefly, he has given non-refutable historical facts to justify his theory. We would not have got truncated India, had we not asked for 'freedom in a begging bowl'. We undermined our revolutionaries from Bhagat Singh to Subhash Chandra Bose under the influence of Gandhi and got divided India in the name of independence. Had we followed our revolutionaries who included both the Hindus and the Muslims, we would have got freedom a bit of late, but quite intact as a nation. Jinnah would not have emerged as he was coward enough not to face India's revolutionary fervour and had gone back to London as a British stooge. Subhash Bose's INA had the Hindus, the Muslims and the Sikhs. Had we fought for independence like the revolutionaries with boldness, courage and a bit of patience, India would never been partitioned. Gandhi deplored all revolutionaries including Bhagat Singh, Sudhash Chandra Bose and JP, and gave us a begging bowl as a means to achieve freedom. Beggars don't get full cake to eat. Leaders of freedom movement along with Gandhi are guilty of such a mess. We need an answer from them. And history will be interpreted time and again to find such an answer. It is Katju's humble effort in this direction. LokSabha or RajyaSabha can't save Gandhi by passing resolutions against Katju.
