The Calcutta Review An Illustrated Monthly (Third Series) Mahatma Gandhi Number

1948

It would be a serious mistake on our part to attach undue importance to Mahatmaji's political work for the liberation of India to the exclusion of his other even more important efforts for the redemption of mankind and the amelioration of the lot of humanity. [...] Such has been the effect of the teachings of Gautama the Buddha ;- Socrates the father of Platonic philosophy ; Jams Christ the Gointoxicated humanitarian; Hazrat Mohamm-ea the apostle of God ; and of others and it is to that high and glorious rank of Immortals that Mahatma Gandhi will now belong for all time to come. [...] In the long run the Indian National Congress leaders —but not the majority of the Indian population —found themselves in the position of formally" declaring Subhas Bose the ally of Japan Germany and Italy as the enemy of India. [...] Unless they suffer from maleria and catch the diseases to which the villagers faH victims on account of the insanitary conditions and absence of clean and pure water in the villages and towns the nationalist workers are not treated as qualified enough to be the advisers guides and leaders of the Indian people. [...] Because the appointment of the Commissioner was in the gift of Government he took the holder of the office to be a Government servant who was expected to defend Government when they were attacked in the Corporation.
