Actually, Gandhi was not popular in greater Punjab (Punjab, Harayana, HP), around and after partition.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

gandhis lack of popularity in the punjab pales in comparism to his total lack of popularity in bengal. bengalis, for all their wizardry with words (ie. literature), still struggle to find a swearword befitting this confused anglophile.

During Partition time Kids used to slap his posters with shoes or paste his face with cow dung.  Have you given thought why he went to Bengal not to Punjab when Punjab was burning. People used to curse him.

Some Indians creates temple for anyone including Lalu and Sonia, soon we may see Rahul or Priyanka.

India was not founded by Gandhi, India was there 5000 years back. Bharatvarsh formed long time back. Every era people have contributed either to destroy or to build Indic civilization.
