Khan Market Gang jibe sparks; India's new-old elite war, Gandhi Vs Mahatma

  • 5 years ago
When it comes to the elites vs masses, privilege and merit we are brought to the unique example of Mahatma Gandhi, a mass leader born into privilege, went to a good school, went to study abroad to one of the most elite law colleges in the world and yet managed to give it all up to lead one of the biggest freedom struggles of the world. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was a lawyer in South Africa, earn as salary close to 15,000 used a year and bought a ticket to travel 1st class, but when he was thrown off the train, his life took a drastic turn Gandhi, a privileged man, lead the rest of his life as a 'fakir', was the force behind India’s freedom struggle.
