Gandhi The Other Side 2018 Rajnikant Puranik by Rajnikant Puranik instant download after payment.

This book brings out the fact that most of the Gandhian thoughts and ideas were regressive, backward, irrational, illogical, impractical, and products of faulty comprehension. They were founded on very limited study, and on stubborn egoism born out of ‘I know best’. No wonder the ‘Mahatma’ has no legacy worth the name! Most of his ideas were discarded soon after his death—actually, much before his from 1944 onwards he stood sidelined. His only visible relevance that we see today is in ‘Swachh Bharat’. True, he advocated cleanliness, but then millions too have been advocating it!
It was Gandhi who won us our freedom—so it is claimed. If it were true one would generously ignore all acts of omission and commission, and shortcomings of Gandhi. But, it is not true. Please refer to the chapter ‘What Really Led to Freedom?’ Gandhi had himself “I see it as clearly as I see my British are leaving not because of any strength on our part but because of historical conditions and for many other reasons.”
Most likely, without Gandhi India would have won its freedom, or at least self-government, many years before 1947.
Apart from the history of India’s freedom struggle, and Gandhi’s role in it, this book brings out Gandhi’s detailed biography, his beliefs, and the principal aspects of his character and personality.
