Summary/Abstract |
In its first issue of September, India's second biggest magazine Outlook carried two pages of letters on Jaswant Singh's new book. Amir Rasheed wrote from New York: As a kid growing up in Patna, even as a Muslim, we always had the ipression that it was Jinnah who wanted Partition. Now we can see the whole game was more complex. Jinnah wanted an equitable share of power for India's Muslima, not a partitioned one in a divided Punjab and Bengal.

Summary/Abstract |
Gandhi's form of protest and life has been resisted and criticized by many in the past and present as impossible, his teachings have led to intense debate and controversies, and this is bound to continue into the future as well. However, amidst the debate and the discussion, Gandhi's teachings are not only kept alive but are constantly produced and re-produced by those seeking to understand Gandhi and apply Gandhi, much like the myth of Gandhi which had become the savior and beacon of hope for many in pre-independent India, preventing them from losing hope under the harsh conditions that had been set up by the erstwhile British colonial rule.

Summary/Abstract |
Despite that none can refute the relevance of Gandhi. Gandhi was a man of great vision, gifted with brilliant insight and the ability to think clearly and profoundly. His thinking was truly relevant to the problems of his own time and that it continues to be relevant today, both to India and to the rest of the world. He was not only an effective leader of action but a profound thinker as well, and, therefore, that as a thinker of no small stature he is most certainly relevant to the world of thought (Quigley, 1971).

Summary/Abstract |
The world has always been afflicted with conflicts of all sorts. The last two centuries have been extremely conflict-prone with persistent problems, two major world wars and many proxy wars. While wielding of power remains the prime motive of these conflicts, many of them are acts of retaliation too. Partly, it can be attributed to deficiency in the spiritual and ethical values that are much affecting the contemporary international relations. Wars are being waged for establishing the so-called democracies, overthrowing dictatorships, wars on terror, and wars to liberate people from state oppressions.

Summary/Abstract |
As a practical social reformer, Gandhi noticed that inter-dining and inter-caste marriage are not going to abolish untouchability and inferiority among varnas exist. He strongly feels that the real cure lies in the change of heart. That is why, he was not enthusiastic about popularising these practices. To the questions whether inter-dining and inter-caste marriage are necessary for the removal of untouchability, his replay is both negative and affirmative. Negative because these are matters of individual concern and affirmative because, a person who refuses to take food touched by another on the plea inferiority, he is observing untouchability.

Summary/Abstract |
Politics is the most crucial human activity that involves governance. Ethics is the set of principles those regulate the activity of governance and administration. Before we focus on Gandhian Ethics it is necessary to focus on the two schools of thought - Idealism and Realism. Idealism was an approach to international politics based upon liberal assumptions and principles. lt was optimistic as it envisioned a world.in which law, institutions and diplomacy replaced power, competition and use of force. This School was represented 'by St. Simon, Richard Cobden. Aldous Huxley, Russell, Mahatma Gandhi, Wilson and Margaret Mead. It gave emphasis on the role of education and international institutions to bring a better world. It focused on the Positive side of human nature. It proceeded with the assumption that the harmony of the interests was not impossible. Hans J. Morgenthau is the main exponent of realist theory. For him the central focus of realism was power. He de?ned power as "man's control over the minds and actions of other man"(Morgenthau,l993). He emphasized on: lnevitability of conflict among nations, Centrality of Power, Ever -present threat of war.

Summary/Abstract |
Gandhi's concept of democracy was not confined to western democratic thoughts. It had a two-fold objective of lifting both individual and the community to a higher level where each will work and think for other. He had passionately concerned about the people of the lowest strata of the society. He wanted complete overhauling of the political system. The government of the country should act to fulfil the expectations of the people must aware of the popular will. Otherwise it will fail to meet the challenge of democracy. Defining the nature of his revolutionary government Gandhi said: "It shall be the nature of the trusts of men at the seat of power shall bow out at their failure to redeem the pledge to the people. If the men at the seat of power, after their failure to fulfil the expectation of the people in general, stick to office, the latter shall have the moral obligation, to dislodge the former."

Summary/Abstract |
Gandhi was opposed more to the English rule than rule by the Englishmen, and the nationalists sought to expel the Englishmen retaining the modern rule introduced by them. What was the drawback of the English rule? According to Gandhi their drawback was to bring modern civilization to India. Both the nationalists and the Mahatma sought to end British rule in India - the nationalists because it was foreign, and the Mahatma because it was modern. "It is not due to any particular fault of the English people," Gandhi asserted, "but the condition is due to modern civilization." "It is civilization only in name. Under it the nations of Europe are becoming degraded and ruined day by day," he added. And Gandhi was convinced that "if India copies England … she will be ruined." He thought that modern civilization "is eating into the vitals of the English nation," and therefore instead of blaming the English we should sympathize with them in their present distress caused by modern civilization. He was however confident that the English people would soon "cast off the evil" of modern civilization which, in his opinion, was not an "incurable disease."
