If you could talk to a historical figure, What would you say?

 

Historical figures if I start counting there are many. In a country like India where there were so many invaders, kings, Mughals, British, national leaders and so on...Counting never ends. If I get a chance to meet any one historical figure then I would like to meet Mahatma Gandhi.

Following two dubious years in India, where he couldn't begin an effective regulation practice, he moved to South Africa in 1893 to address an Indian shipper in a claim. He proceeded to live in South Africa for a considerable length of time. It was here that Gandhi raised a family and first utilized peaceful opposition in a mission for social equality. In 1915, matured 45, he got back to India and before long set about sorting out workers, ranchers, and metropolitan workers to challenge unnecessary land expense and separation.

Mahatma Gandhi, the father of our nation has done a lot for humanity whether he was in Africa or India. He helped the blacks to attain respect in that white-dominated country. When he returned to his country, he was startled to see their miserable condition. His sacrifices are abundant.

I want to question that his determination was at its peak during the Dandi March or in attaining independence then why he left his countrymen alone taking too much time to make a decision.  His prolonged time taken in knowing the good of the people of Kashmir led Kashmir into chaos forever.

I want to know didn't you feel that those people also needed sympathy or equality. Then why diplomatic relations or decisions were taken that ruthlessly led people to kill other people or brutally rape women.

Though I know it is not the fault of any it's just that power was transferred to Indians from the British but they didn't understand how to hold it and keep all the countrymen together and safe from all outer invasions.

I really respect the dedication and sacrifices of millions of Indians but we need to ponder on the mistakes that accidentally happened during that era that led to bloviating two nations. So whether I get a chance to talk to them then I would only like to reverse the wrong decisions taken and prevent the deadly chaos that happened.

It's my honour to meet this personality in person. To know about the hardships, striking endless efforts to help the needy and do some good for humanity and Indians. His consistent work and blessings are never to be forgotten. Salute to him!

  1. You have captured the essence of time travel so well. What would we do if we knew the outcome of a decision. Would we do anything differently?

    1. Thanks a lot! Many questions go unanswered and the common man has to suffer its outcomes.
