Mohan das Gandhi has caused irreparable loss to the nation by his policy of appeasement of muslims and his sexual escapades. He divided the nation in the name of religion that Hindus and muslims can't live together and we gave away 8 lakh square kms of our ancient land for muslims for their islamic state. Yet mohan das Gandhi didn't insist on the segregation of population as well and was the cause of the biggest massacre in 1947, in a peace time in the history of mankind. Millions of people Hindus, muslims and sikhs alike were killed mercilessly that included the men, women and children.
