Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Mahatma Gandhi - Modern criticism

Various historians and commentators have criticized Gandhi for his attitudes regarding Hitler and Nazism, including statements to the effect that the Jews would win God's love if they willingly went to their deaths as martyrs. [4] [5] Penn and Teller, in an episode of their Showtime program Bullshit! ("Holier than Thou"), attacked Gandhi for, amongst other things, hypocrisy for perceived inconsistent stands on nonviolence, alleged inappropriate behaviour with wom ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Master Tara Singh - Leader of the Sikhs

The Sikh Gurdwara bill met most of the demands of the Sikhs, but the government was willing to release the prisoners conditionally i.e. on the understanding to be given by the Akalis that they would agree to work for the Gurdwara Act. The Shiromani Akali Dal and the executive declared conditions imposed for the release of prisoners as wholly unnecessary, unjust and derogatory. Among the prominent Akalis, Mehtab Singh and Giani Sher Singh along with twenty other Akali leaders accepted the conditional release. Master Tara Singh, Baba Kharak Si ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Mahatma Gandhi - Assassination

On January 30, 1948, on his way to a prayer meeting, Gandhi was shot dead in Birla House, New Delhi, by Nathuram Godse. Godse was a Hindu radical with alleged links to right-wing Hindu organisations, like the Hindu Mahasabha and Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, who held Gandhi responsible for weakening India by insisting upon a payment to Pakistan. It was widely believed that, due to Gandhi, India remained the home of Muslims who were sympathetic to Pakistan. Godse and his co-conspirator Narayan Apte were later tried and convicted, and on 15 Nov ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Mahatma Gandhi - Civil rights movement in South Africa 1893–1914

Mahatma Gandhi - Inspirations. During his years in South Africa, Gandhi drew inspiration from the Bhagavad Gita and the writings of Leo Tolstoy (especially The Kingdom of God is Within You [1]), who in the 1880s had undergone a profound conversion to a personal form of Christian anarchism. Gandhi translated Tolstoy's A Letter to a Hindu (available at wikisource), written in 1908 in response to aggressive Indian nationalists. The two corresponded until Tolstoy's death in 1910. The letter by To ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Mahatma Gandhi - Personal Life

Gandhi returned to India in 1915, and about this time began transforming his habits, lifestyle and mannerisms to more traditional Indian ways. When he sought to make a living by beginning a newspaper and practicing law, he was dissuaded by Gopal Krishna Gokhale, who asked him to involve himself more deeply in important national issues. Gandhi and his wife Kasturba would travel all over the country, and live in a series of ashrams in Gujarat and Maharashtra, and the homes of colleagues and sympathizers. When visiting Delhi, they would ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Mahatma Gandhi - Post-Independence

After India's independence, Gandhi ceased all his political roles and focused on Hindu-Muslim peace and unity. He conducted extensive dialogue with Muslim religious and community leaders, and leaders of Hindu and Sikh communities, working to cool passions in northern India, as well as in Bengal. After Kashmir acceded to India and following the war against Pakistani invasion, he was troubled when the Government decided to deny Pakistan the Rs. 55 crores it was due as per agreements made by the Partition Council. Leaders like Sardar Pat ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Mahatma Gandhi - Freedom and Partition of India 1945–1947

Gandhi advised the Congress to reject the proposals of the British Cabinet Mission Plan offered in 1946, as he was deeply suspicious of power-sharing with the Muslim League and the divisions and minimization of central power involved. Gandhi warned against the grouping proposed for Muslim-majority states. However, this became one of the few times the Congress broke from Gandhi's advice (not his leadership though), as not only did Congress leaders want to create a government which would take over from the British as quickly as possible, bu ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Subhash Chandra Bose - Actions during the Second World War

Bose advocated the approach that the political instability of war-time Britain should be taken advantage of—rather than simply wait for the British to grant independence after the end of the war (which was the view of Gandhi, Nehru and a section of the Congress leadership) at the time. In this he was influenced by the examples of Italian statesmen Giuseppe Garibaldi and Giuseppe Mazzini. During his stay in Europe from 1933 to 1936, he met several European leaders and thinkers, including Benito Mussolini, Eduard Beneš, Karl Seitz, Eamon De ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Vinayak Damodar Savarkar - Background

Vinayak Savarkar was a great orator, prolific writer, historian, poet, philosopher and social worker who devoted his entire life to the cause of the Indian Independence movement.

From June to August 15, 1947, 562 of the 565 India-linked states signed the instrument of accession. Despite dramatic political exchanges, Travancore, Jodhpur and Indore signed on time. Patel was also willing to take on other Indian leaders for the sake of accomplishing the job. The privy purse pledge was offensive to many socialists, and Prime Minister Nehru had complained of Patel by-passing the Cabinet. Patel described the pledge as an essential guarantee of the Government's intentions, and it was duly incorporated into the Constit ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Vinayak Damodar Savarkar - The Politician

Savarkar, though an athiest himself, reluctantly accepted the presidency of the Hindu Mahasabha, and was its president for seven consecutive years. During this time, he contributed significantly to its evolution as a separate political party. When Britain declared war on Germany and arbitrarily included India in the war, he made a statement - "Britain's claim of safeguarding human freedom was simply meaningless". Nevertheless, Savarkar asked Hindus to help the British in their war effort against Germany and Japan. His admirers ...

His literary works in Marathi include "Kamala", "Mazi Janmathep" (My Life Sentence), and most famously "1857 - The First war of Independence", about what the British had conveniently called the Sepoy Mutiny. Savarkar popularized the term 'First War of Independence'. Another noted book was "Kala Pani" (similar to Life Sentence, but on the island prison on the Andamans), which reflected the treatment of Indian freedom fighters by the British. In order to counter the then accepted view that India's history was a saga of continuous defeat, he wrote an inspirational historical work, "Saha Soneri Pane" (Six Golden Pages), r ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Vinayak Damodar Savarkar - Involvement in Assassination of Gandhi

In the period leading to, and immediately after, Indian Independence, the stand taken by Mahatma Gandhi regarding division of assets between India and Pakistan created deep divisions in the country. Savarkar, by now one of the fiercest critics of the Mahatma, expressed his opposition to Gandhi's stance in no uncertain terms during that period. Later, when Gandhi was assassinated by Nathuram Godse, there were several allegations that Savarkar masterminded the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi. This had its origins in Godse's membership of the M ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Political integration of India - Process of accession

The states of Gwalior, Bikaner, Patiala and Baroda were the first to join India on April 28, 1947. Others were wary, distrusting a democratic government led by revolutionaries and fearful of losing their influence as rulers. Thus, Travancore and Hyderabad announced their desire for independence while the Nawab of Bhopal, Hamidullah Khan, expressed his desire to either negotiate with Pakistan or seek independence. The Nawab was a powerful influence on a number of princes, as he was the former chancellor of the Chamber of Princes. In ad ...
