Assasination Of Mahatma Gandhi

[Guest]

I could not help wonder if the cooling off of the hindu emotions had something to do with Mahatma Gandhi's assasination. From what I read (I was not born then), the average hindu was more pro-hindutva and that event push the secular agenda on hindus. It was as though hindus were ashamed to be associated with a ideology that killed the father of the nation. That made it easy for commies and congress party to push the secular agenda. Commies, who during the freedom struggle, considered Gandhi and hinduism as the greatest obstacles to "the revolution", used the death of Gandhi to suppress hinduism. The congress party, which was to be dissolved as per Gandhi's wishes, under the socialist Nehru became pro-minority after Sardar's death. Many of the constitutional amendments that were made could possibly be traced to suppressing the hindu unity. Government control of temples was one such measure.

My idea of starting this discussion is following:

1) What if Gandhi had not been killed

2) How his death impacted hindu psyche

3) How to correct this change and make hindus pro-hindutva
