Ayodhya Issue & Gandhi ji

Baapu’s birth anniversary coincides with the Allahbad High Court judgment on Ayodhya dispute. I wonder what would have been Bapu’s reaction on the judgment. Justice SU Khan, one of the three judges who delivered the judgment on Ayodhya dispute said in his judgment "Indian Muslims have also inherited huge legacy of religious learning and knowledge. They are, therefore, in the best position to tell the world the correct position. Let them start with their role in the resolution of the conflict at hand." What justice Khan said is about sacrifice. Ahimsa of Mahtma Gandhi was nothing but sacrifice. His teachings are his experience. Some people criticize him for his words but before commenting on Gandhi one should study about him. Whatever he said first he experimented with it. He always talked about change of hearts and he adivised to do so even in case of external threats to the countries. His fasts were to clean the hearts of people. But most probably Mahtma would have appealed to Hindus to leave their claim on the site. But today justice Khan has appealed Muslims to do that Bapu’s soul must be happy to see that.

  1. I have read an article given by some good friend of ours that Gandhi in name of experiment was making women sleep with him. I will not comment on that. But I saw many people just reading about that changed their minds about Gandhi, how easily we change our minds on something.
    If Gandhi would be there before 60 years when the quarrel for that land took place he would have pleaded for death.

    FOR THOSE WHO FIGHT FOR LAND
    zamin kahe davedar ko
    tu kya dava kare
    ek din aisaa aayega
    mujh me samaajaye ga
    aaye hai jo jaayenge
    hindu muslim sikh
    ek kabar me latey chale
    dooja bandhe rassi
