IMO this is the result of an increase in the influence of far right Hindu organizations like RSS. With their propaganda they have been successfully brainwashing a sizable number of ppl towards their own version of events/history/state affairs/etc.
A legend admired all over the world, assassinated again yesterday.The most unfortunate part is, while discussing Gandhi with my colleagues (mostly under 30 and engineers), this same viewpoint echoes often. I sometimes wonder, is evolution a reversible process?
To top it off...these ppl are being allowed to get away with such acts. Technically I guess they can get away with it under "free speech" and what not...but at the very least there should be public backlash. Ppl should condemn this and these parties should be boycotted. Though I don't agree with everything Gandhi stood for...still bcuz of the role he played for independence from the British rule, he deserves respect.
