did he do anything right
>>
he got Britain to leave its biggest colony on the strength of a boycott campaign which turned it from the "jewel in the crown" to a money sink
>>

Arguably the worst leader in human history, the only other contender for the title is Nehru. Other people get leaders like Zia, Ben Gurion, Ataturk, Mao, Deng. Indians get absolute garbage.
>>
>>18538938
Kicked the british out by the mere threat of a riot than rioting. Unified a region rife with divides over religion, culture and language towards a common enemy

Still butthurt over kashmir I see. Yours is not a sovereign state. Pakistan is a british, Chinese and American puppet state

Then learn how to read, nigga. Easy fix.

In retrospect how did it help India get independence that this guy didn't eat food?
>>
>>18538963
India was always a money sink. The "boycott" did nothing.

>>18538938
>did he do anything right
When did the Brits give India it's independence?
1948.
Why? WWII devastated their capability.
So who freed India?
The Germans. Hitler.

>an object however worthy it must appear to you
What did Goondhi mean by this?
>>
>>18538938
Yes. His love, like Isa's, freed Bharat.

>When did the brits give independence to the US? 1778
>why? The 30 year war devastated them
>so who freed the US?
>the French
This is your logic

NTA but the US literally fought a war. What did Indians do to get independence except beg for it like they do with everything else?

It must be this.
Countless efforts have been made in history to retreive this macguffin
No one really know where it will end up next

>>18538987
He wasn't a leader though, that's just Civ

The Shadow destroys them all, leaving it in nobody's hands for very long

>>18538938
It doesn't matter because he isn't relevant today. Jeets are all hardline nationalists who bitch about the Britishers and most of their neighbors. They totally forgot about this guy.
>>
>>18540900
he wasn't really that relevant even when he was alive desu, apart from being a figurehead
his plan for india was for it to revert to rural semi-anarchy of millions of villages under a decentralized national government, while nehru and the others looked to the soviets and chinese as a model for socialist-tier industrialization
