New Delhi: Former Supreme Court Judge Markandey Katju made some shocking comments on Mahatma Gandhi on Facebook. Calling Gandhi a ‘feudal minded hypocrite’ and ‘reactionary’, Katju said the real Father of the Nation is the Mughal Emperor Akbar.
Also calling Gandhi a British agent, he said it is no wonder that the British installed Gandhi’s statue in front of their Parliament and not one of Bhagat Singh, Chandrasekhar, Surya Sen etc. He also added that Gandhi’s ideas of self-sufficient villages, khadi, charkha etc were reactionary and nonsense.
