There were definitely good points and bad points about Mahatma Gandhi. Everyone knows about the good points, millions are inspired by his <a href="http://www.mahatmagandhiquotes.com/" rel="nofollow"> quotes even today. However, some bad incidents that I feel were - punishing the innocent instead of the culprit! (he ordered a woman in his ashram to cut her hair because a crazy man got attracted to her), excessive philosophy of non-violence (violence against injustice is necessary), etc. I personally feel I dont about him well enough.

Also the fact that he spoke truth no matter what, is amazing. It requires a lot of determination and courage. I think such a power to motivate a nation couldn't be achieved from violence alone by revolutionaries. Thanks Naina for mentioning his biography, will read it as soon as I have some free time.
