Another October 2 — Gandhi Jayanti


It was only some time back that the year started and now it’s October, nearing the end of the year. And as the October begins, the day two comes–the birth anniversary of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi or Mahatma Gandhi.
Though I am a believer of non-violence and truth, and appreciate Mahatma for the same, I am not take his words a sacrosanct. Mahatma was a great person, but he was as human as any other so he can’t be expected to be always correct. “To err is human”.


Gandhi was extremely popular and got lot of respect from the people but there is one aspect where he is still considered by many to be deviant from his own principles.
