Why did Gandhi reject the idea of C.F. Andrews’ helping him in Champaran? |
|
Answer» In early days of Champaran action, Charles Freer Andrews, the English pacifist became a devoted follower of Gandhi. Before going to a tour to duty to Fiji Island he came to bid Gandhi farewell. Gandhi’s lawyer friend wanted him to stay and help them thinking that having a British on their side will have more leverage in taking on the British. Gandhi strongly opposed them saying that a battle should be won on the merit of the justness of the cause and not on outside crutches. |
