Why do people hate Mahatma Gandhi so much?

First of all stop calling him a Mahatama. The actual question should be “Why is that Greedy Gandhi not hated by everyone”?

Now, There are three reasons why i dislike Mohandas Gandhi:-

首先，别再叫他圣雄了。真正的问题应该是“为什么贪婪的甘地还没有被所有人憎恨”?

我不喜欢甘地的原因有三个：

First, His role in partition of India which resulted in bloodshed and forced migration of millions of people from both sides of the border. People were uprooted from their ancestral homes(especially in the Punjab region), and were forced to live homeless and hungry. I myself belong to a Punjabi refugee family from Sialkot(Western Punjab), therefore i can understand the pain which my family had to suffer during the partition. Similarly i can feel for the innocent Muslims of Eastern Punjab who were forced to migrate to other side of the border. I am not saying that only innah or Nehru were involved in partition, but Gandhi is to be equally blamed as he did not prevent partition even though he could.

首先，他在分裂印度中所扮演的角色，导致了流血事件，迫使边界两边数百万人背井离乡。人们被逐出原籍(尤其是在旁遮普省)，被迫过上居无定所、食不果腹的生活。我自己就来自锡亚尔科特(西旁遮普)的一个旁遮普难民家庭，因此我能理解我的家人在分裂期间所遭受过的痛苦。同样，我也同情旁遮普省东部无辜的穆 斯林，他们被赶出了国界。我不是说只有真纳和尼赫鲁参与了分裂事件，但甘地也应该受到同样的指责，因为他没有采取行动来阻止分裂，他是有这个权力的。

Second, Selection of a Womaniser Jawaharlal Nehru over great leader Sardar Patel for the PM of India, IN 1947 Japan was much behind India in economy but due to its own efforts it re-established itself, and India lagged much behind Japan after 60 years of Nehru-Gandhi dynasty. Sardar had visions for the development of the nation. If Sardar were the PM, neither we had any Nehru-Gandhi rule and nor we would be lagging behind even after 60 years of independence. We would be much ahead of all the developed nations.

第二，他任命贾瓦哈拉尔·尼赫鲁担任印度总理，没有选择伟大领袖萨达尔·帕特尔。1947年，日本在经济上曾经远远落后于印度，但凭借自己的努力，日本实现了重建。而在被尼赫鲁-甘地王朝统治60年后，印度已经远远落后于日本。萨达尔对国家的发展颇有远见。如果萨达尔当时担任总理，我们就不会有尼赫鲁-甘地的统治，也不会在独立60年后还是这么落后，我们肯定会远远领先于所有发达国家。

Third and the most important, his bias against revolutionaries like Bhagat Singh and Subhash Chandra Bose. Everybody knew that how much influential and powerful these both great leaders were that time and Mohandas Gandhi was much behind them, so to overtake them, Mohandas Gandhi killed both of these great personalities. No Punjabi or Bengali can ever forgive Gandhi for this shameful act.

第三，也是最重要的一点，他对巴加特·辛格和苏巴希·钱德拉·博斯等革命者有偏见。每个人都知道那时候这两位伟大的领袖的影响力和权力有多大，远超莫罕达斯·甘地，所以为了超越他们，莫罕达斯·甘地杀死了这两位伟大的人物。旁遮普或孟加拉人永远不会原谅甘地的可耻行为。

Do you know when Godse was in Jail he wrote a book “Why i killed Gandhi”, but this book was banned by the government as they knew that after reading this book all people will start hating Gandhi

Well, the truth was submerged long ago and the true books were banned in the public, and their distorted version was placed in the public , and now some ignorants on quora are asking me to read those distorted books.

你知道吗，高德斯入狱后写了一本书《为什么我要杀甘地》，但是这本书被政府封杀了，因为他们知道，所有人看完这本书后都会开始恨甘地。

好吧，真相已经被历史长河淹没了，真理之书被封杀，公众只能看到曲解的历史版本，现在quora上居然还有一些无知小人要求我必须读一读。

Gandhiji once recited the Quran at a Valmiki Basti Temple in Delhi. The woman got up from the crowd and asked Gandhi not to do that. Gandhi asked, "Why?" The woman said it was "against our religion." Gandhi said, "I don't believe so." The woman replied that we do not consider you worthy to order our religion.

Gandhi said to take the vote of the people present there. "Can religion be determined by votes?" the woman asked. Gandhi responded, "You are hindering my religion." The woman replied that he is illegally interfering in the religion of crores of Hindus

甘地曾在德里的瓦尔米基·巴斯蒂寺庙诵读《古兰经》。有位妇女从人群中站出来，请求甘地立刻停止。甘地问：“为什么?”这名女子说这“违背了我们的宗教信仰”。但甘地说：“我不这么认为。”女人回答：我们认为你不配对我们的宗教指手画脚。

甘地让在场的人投票决定。“宗教可以通过投票来决定吗?”甘地回答说：“你妨碍了我的宗教信仰。”这名女子则说甘地是在非法干涉印度教徒的宗教信仰。

Hundreds of Valmiki youths stood up for the woman. Seeing the growing protests, Gandhi called the police who arrived and caught the protesters. 107 cases were registered against them.

Some people don't like Gandhiji because of his hypocrisy.

数百名瓦尔米基青年为这名妇女也站了出来。看到抗议活动愈演愈烈，甘地叫来了警察，警察赶到后抓住了抗议者，并登记立案107起。

有些人不喜欢甘地，就是因为他太虚伪。

Why do people hate Gandhiji?

Here is a conversation with a random Gandhi hater.

Me: So, why do you hate Gandhi?

Hater: He is not as good as people believe. There is a hidden dark side to Gandhiji which most people doesn't know.

Me: Ok. How did you come to know about this? Did your grandparents who lived during pre-Independence era tell you?

Hater: No. They don't hate him. They were all brainwashed. They don't know the real facts either.

Me: Dude. Then how on Earth did you come to know to about this?

Hater: I read somewhere in the internet about the dark side of Gandhi. He was responsible for the death of Bhagat Singh and Netaji.

Me: …………….

以下是一段我与甘地憎恨者的对话。

我:你为什么讨厌甘地?

怨恨者:他没有人们想象的好。甘地的阴私嘴脸是大多数人都不知道的。

我:好吧，那你是怎么知道的？是你那生活在印度独立前时期的祖父母告诉你的吗？

怨恨者:不是。他们不恨他。他们都被洗脑了。他们也不知道事实的真相。

我:兄弟，那你到底是怎么知道的?

怨恨者:我在网上看到过甘地的阴私嘴脸。他必须为巴加特·辛格和奈塔吉的死负责。

我 : ................

Internet is always right you know!!!!

But I don't understand why they believe only the conspiracy theories about Gandhi but ignore all his great deeds which is also all over the internet.

If you don't agree with Gandhi's ideology that's perfectly fine. But stop insulting him personally.

It was the same British he fought against, has installed a statue of Gandhi in the British Parliament building. Gandhi has statues and monuments built after him in over 100 countries including our supposedly enemies Pakistan and China.

I don't think he is perfect. He never claimed he was. He did have his flaws. He made lot of mistakes. But nothing takes away from the fact that he did achieve something truly extraordinary.

互联网总是正确的，你懂的

但我不明白为什么他们只愿意相信关于甘地的阴谋论，却对甘地的所有伟大事迹置之不顾呢，甘地的光辉事迹在互联网上也比比皆是啊。

如果你不赞同甘地的意识形态，那都没关系。但是别再侮辱他了。

他一直反对抗争的那个英国人，在英国议会大楼里为甘地竖了一尊雕像。在全世界100多个国家都有甘地的雕像和纪念碑，连我们所谓的敌人巴基斯坦和中国也不例外。

在我看来，甘地并不完美。他也从未声称自己是完美的。他确实有缺点。他也犯过很多错误。但谁也不能否认，他确实取得了非凡的成就。

No! People Don't hate him!

People just hate the fact that he is overrated!

Freedom struggle was never a one-man lead movement and Gandhiji wasn't alone involved in motivating people to fight for swaraj! He alone doesn't deserve a national holiday and a dry day on his birthday!

Congress party wasn't the only party fighting for Independence.

不，人们并不恨甘地

人们只是讨厌世人对他的盲目崇拜!

自由斗争从来不可能是单人领导的运动，鼓励人们为斯瓦拉杰而战时，甘地不是一个人！他独自一人不配享受国家法定假日，也不配在他生日那天让印度人民为他禁酒

国大党并不是唯一为独立而奋战的政党。

Remember these people?

Chandrashekar Azad

Bhagat Singh

Subhash Chandra Bose

These people were too involved in the freedom movement as much as Gandhiji! How many of them are to be seen on the currency notes? How many roads are named after them?

还记得这些人吗?

钱德拉什卡尔·阿扎德

巴加特·辛格

苏巴希·钱德拉·博斯

这些人也积极参与了自由运动，他们的贡献不输甘地！但是纸币上印有他们的头像吗？以他们的名字命名的道路有几条？

These people were mainly ignored because they didn't belong to the Indian National Congress which re wrote the freedom struggle history after gaining power.

Gandhiji was as patriotic and wanted to see the dream of a Republic India coming true as much as these people wanted. He was undoubtedly one of the greatest leaders the world would ever have. But the fact that these leaders are comfortably ignored disappoints me. In fact, I feel the history of India's freedom struggle in my school curriculum undermines these leaders' contribution since they chose violence over non-violence. It claims Gandhiji and his ideologies the sole reason behind India's Independence.

这些人被印度人忽视的主要原因是他们不属于印度国民大会党，而国大党在获得权力后改写了自由斗争的历史。

毫无疑问，甘地是爱国的，他希望看到印度共和国的梦想实现，就像这些人也同样期盼的那样。毫无疑问，他是世界上最伟大的领导人之一。但事实是，这些领导人被忽视了，对此我很失望。事实上，我觉得学校的印度自由斗争史课程把这些领导人的贡献削弱了，因为这些人选择了暴力活动，而不是甘地倡导的非暴力不合作运动。学校课程还称甘地及其意识形态是印度成功独立的唯一原因。

India can never forget Gandhiji or his contributions! I just hope it remembers the names of other freedom fighters as well!

印度永远不会忘记甘地和甘地的贡献！我只希望印度也能记住其他自由战士的名字！

Why do people hate Gandhiji?

I don't think people hate Gandhiji just criticize some of his stands and statements and rightly so.

I think our history is so distorted we were made to believe that Congress led by Gandhiji was the reason we got independence.

Well now the statements given are public by then PM of Britain who signed India's independence document. When asked what was the reason for Britain to grant India independence he said not Gandhiji but Netaji which got us independence.

我认为人们并不讨厌甘地，只是反对他的一些立场和言论。

我认为我们的历史被严重扭曲了，我们被洗脑甘地领导的国大党才是我们获得独立的原因。

好吧，现在签署了印度独立文件的时任英国首相发表了声明。当被问及英国承认印度独立的原因时，他说为印度带来独立的不是因为甘地，而是纳吉。

I'm not saying that Gandhiji wasn't a great freedom fighter who inspired India but by this false narrative the role of many other leaders like Lokmanya Tilak, Swami Vivekananda, Lal-Bal-Pal, who were deserving of the same respect somehow forcibly diminished.

我没有说甘地不是一个伟大的自由战士，他激励了印度，但因为这种不实言论，许多本应受到同样尊重的其他领导人的作用，如洛克玛尼亚·提拉克，斯瓦米·维韦卡南达，拉尔·巴尔帕尔，却被强行淡化了。

Much has been said about, Gandhi's apathy towards hindus, his comments on the jews, unrealistic idealism, his many antiques with his nieces etc. I, however, find displeasure in the way Gandhi approached the whole freedom struggle namely the whole, 'be non violent, get beaten, don't eat’ stuff.’

We know, that Gandhi often advised people to NOT fight back. Like he famously did, in 1924, or when Uddham Singh killed O’ Dwyer ( a man responsible for death of hundreds of Indians). This was partly based on his following, of Christ's teachings which did not work back in Christ's time nor in modern times. Why did he believe in such ideas? Because of some vague sort of idealistic belief in him, that : 'By allowing the oppressor to beat you, you are letting his humanity wake up’

关于甘地对印度教徒的冷漠，他对犹太人的评论，不切实际的理想主义，他和侄女们的许多古董等的传言有很多。我不喜欢甘地对待整个自由斗争的方式，即“非暴力，被痛揍，搞绝食”。

我们知道，甘地经常劝人们不要反抗。就像他在1924年，乌德汉姆·辛格杀死威德尔(一个需要对数百名印度人的死负责的人)时所做的那样著名。这在一定程度上是因为他对基督教义的拥护，而这些教义在基督时代和现代都不起作用。他为什么会相信这些教义？因为他有一种模糊的理想主义信念，那就是:“压迫者对你施暴能唤醒他的人性。”

Remember, this was a time of a belief in the racial and political inferiority of non whites to whites. The only way, to break this belief (by the non whites ofcourse) was if you could fight and send europeans back to their homes while defending your land. Ethiopia, did this to the Italians. Japan did this to the Russians. Cubans did this to Spaniards(albiet eith american help). Turks did this to literally half of Europe. After the Second World War, Vietnamese repeated this feat to France, USA etc.

那是一个认为有色人种在种族和政治上都比白人低等的时代。打破这种观念的唯一方法(当然是有色人种)是，奋起反抗，把欧洲人赶回老家，守卫自己的国土。埃塞俄比亚人对意大利人做了这样的事。日本人对俄国人做了这样的事。古巴人也对西班牙人也做了这样的事(尽管有美国人的帮助)。还有土耳其人对半个欧洲都做了同样的事。二战后，越南人也对法国、美国等国做了同样的事。

No such, event came for the Indians. As a result, if you have a chauvinist Britisher, proudly stating their superiority to Indians you cannot reiterate back with, 'Well guess what? Remember when we refused to eat and you had to run away? It proves you are wrong’

Gandhi was highly charismatic and a capable leader. On his call, millions of Indians were ready to sacrifice their lives, don't you think they would be ready to pick up a weapon and fight back?

I would not call it hatred of Gandhi, but certainly it did put among Indians a sense of inferiority that continues well into modern day.

但印度人没有这么做。所以，如果沙文主义的英国人骄傲地宣称他们比印度人优越，难道你反驳“我们搞绝食，把你们吓跑了，这证明你说的是错的。”

甘地是一位极具魅力和能力的领导人。在他的号召下，数百万印度人甘愿牺牲自己的生命，难道你不相信他们愿意准备拿起武器反击吗？

我觉得这谈不上对甘地的仇恨，但这确实让印度人背负了一种自卑感，一直延续到现代。

Gandhiji had become a globally recognised leader even before his death…and i think he didn't spend a penny on publicizing himself. What happened aftermath is politics….every big leader trying to link himself in howsoever manner possible to Gandhiji, whether it be having same ideaology or family relations.

Most of the people who supports BJP, hate Gandhiji….bash who follow Gandhiji…

甘地在死前就已经成为全球公认的领袖，他没有花过一分钱来为自己做宣传。每个大领导人都试图把自己跟甘地联系在一起，要么说自己有着跟甘地相同的意识形态，要么说自己是甘地的亲戚。

大多数支持人民党的人都讨厌甘地....抨击甘地的追随者…

A) He involved Muslim religious fundamentalists in the Khilafat movement and opened the Pandora’s box

B) He was a pacifist and too much of an idealist

C) He was anti-industrialisation and had no vision for modern India.

Some people often perceive him as being too secular and anti-Hindu.

But again these all are opinions, Gandhi had flaws like any other human being, best is that Indian analyse him objectively without holding him on a pedestal.

A) 他将原教旨主义者卷入了基拉法特运动，打开了潘多拉的盒子。

B) 他是一个和平主义者，但是太理想主义了。

C) 他反对工业化，对现代印度没有发展的眼光。

有些人常常认为他太世俗，反对印度教。

这些都是人们的观点，甘地和其他人一样，都有缺点，印度人应该客观地看待他，不要把他摆上神坛。

Why do some people criticize Mahatma Gandhi?

Some people have a natural inclination to point out the flaws in masterpieces they themselves could never create.

Because Gandhi is so revered, he attracts these types who fail to realize his greatness doesn't come from his perfection, but rather it comes from his ability to overcome his own limitations to leave a mark on humanity which isn't likely to be forgotten.

有些人天性就喜欢鸡蛋里挑骨头，总爱在别人身上找缺点。

因为甘地非常受人尊敬，这些人就盯上了他，他们没有意识到甘地的伟大不是来自于完美，而是来自于他克服自身局限性的能力，为人类留下了深刻的影响
