Gandhi’s questionable past

The world is respecting Gandhiji for his eternal, global and humane values of non-violence, which shines eternally against atrocious violence that is burning humanity. Sexual shenanigans are least concern against admired and accepted values. Clever display of words is traumatising those who have benefited from benevolent practice of non violence.
I feel that, astronomical amounts of money for a statue, is contra to altruism and compassion as preached by Gandhiji. Many women, students and professionals are facing domestic, social and monetary crises which can be alleviated. Values stolen from contemporary freedom fighters were successfully practiced to by Gandhiji. Only after independence, India is elevated to the levels of flying spaceship to Mars and attracting international favourable spotlight.
