This Day in History: Gandhi Begins Fast in Protest of Caste Separation (Saturday, Sep. 16)
This Day in History:, Gandhi Begins Fast in
Protest of Caste Separation.
September 16, 1932.
Imprisoned by the British for conducting
a civil disobedience campaign, Mohandas Gandhi
conducted his hunger strike in his cell.
.
The fast would last for
six days, ending when the
British conceded to Gandhi's terms.
Specifically, Gandhi protested a newly
ratified Indian constitution that had British support.
It imposed political
separation on India's lowest
classes β the "untouchables" β for 70 years.
Though he was born into a powerful caste,
Gandhi recognized the constitution's unfair division.
This is a god-given opportunity that has come to me to offer my life as a final sacrifice to
the downtrodden, Mohandas Gandhi, Yerwada Jail

Rahul Gandhi's recent statement at the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra's finale in Mumbai sparked controversy. While attempting to criticise BJP's tactics, his mention of "Shakti" in Hindu dharma was perceived differently, leading to BJP using it against Congress and Rahul. Congress defended Gandhi, attributing his words to BJP's power through RSS and 'Manuvaad.' However, the incident highlights the importance of careful language in political discourse, especially during elections, to avoid unintended consequences and misinterpretations.
