Mr. Rahul Gandhi exposed himself of his limitted knowledge of the struggle made by the then great selfless and righteous personnals before acheving Indipedence.Perhaps he may not be know about his paternal grand father and how & why he got the sirname Gandhi. Instead of listening to half knowledgeble friends, he should read complete Indian History since Invation of Moguls to the assassination of our Father of the Nation Mr.Mahatma Gandhi. He should first travel the lengh and breadth of India to understand about the Indian people and their culture before making any comments of this nature.

Mr. R. Gandhi should know that the freedom was not achieved by the efforts of a single person or family. He should also know that many things done during Nehru's time or during the period of Mrs. Gandhi were not correct. It was perhaps Neharu's mistake to have refused the offer of permanent member seat in the security council, UNO, for which so much effort is being made by present administration. The only defeat that India suffered after independence was during his period, and that too only because of taking wrong policy decisions. If it would have been for Neharu, Nizam's domain would have remained out side Indian Republic for long or would have created much more problem for India than any other state of this Republic. These are not only a few points that he should pay attention to, but there are many more, which is beyond debate apart from imposition of emergency rule etc. Yes, one thing which is becoming obvious is that the domination of their rule leads to subversion of constitutional aouthorities, they perhaps need a judiciary committed to their decisions (note the changes made during Mrs Gandhi's period), governors acting as the representative of their will and desire and not as a constitutional functionaries and so on.
He should also know that India progressed perhaps in a much better way when someone from them were not in power.
