FREEDOM BHARATH(INDIA)
Nathuram Godse approached Mahatma Gandhi on January 30, 1948 during the evening prayer at Birla House in Delhi and bowed.
One of the girls flanking and supporting Gandhi, Abha Chattopadhyay, said to him, “Brother, Bapu is already late” and tried to put him off but he pushed her aside and shot Gandhi in the chest three times at point-blank range with a semi-automatic pistol. Gandhi died almost immediately.
After shooting, Godse did not try to run or threaten anyone else. He was attacked and pinned to the ground by the crowd around him and was subsequently arrested when a small group of police officers arrived on the scene a few minutes later.
Beyond this there is a very little known facts that Godse met Gandhiji on 30th January morning, when he was alone accompanied only by Sardar Vallabhai Patel’s grand daughter.
He could have killed him easily then and flee but he didn’t. This incident left many questions unfold, some of them are:
1.Why Nathuram Godse killed Gandhi ji in public?
2.Why he did not try to escape on killing Gandhi ji? And instead surrendered himself to the police?
3.Why were the trial statements of Godse not made public for a long period of time?
4.The biggest question, why he killed Gandhi ji?
Nathuram Godse was a well educated man, and had his own newspaper with the name “Agrani”
He was born on 19th May 1910 in Baramati Pune District in a Chitpavan Brahmin family. His father, Vinayak Vamanrao Godse, was a post office employee and his mother was Lakshmii.
His full name was Nathuram Vinayak Godse. He was a Hindutva activist and journalist.
There have been reports that Nathuram Godse was a fanatic or a mentally unstable person but if he was mentallu unstable then why he pushed aside the girl accompanying Gandhi ji out of the line of shoot, minimizing the danger to the girl’s life?Godse was a man who was against casteism and attended several rallies and meetings to oppose the same.
He also worked with Hindu refugees during partition.Gandhi ji played an important role in getting independence to the nation and Godse was also a wanted the same then what made him to hate Gandhi and take a decision to kill him.
Godse’s editorial Agrani described that the roots of the Godse’s decision to kill Gandhi ji can be traced back to 1947, the time during which country had to face the bitter wound of partition. And the people held responsible for this were Muslim league, headed by Jinnah and The Congress. And it’s a well known fact that Gandhi ji and Shri Jawahar Lal Nehru were the people having the most prominent influence over the Congress. Any decision of Congress was influenced by Gandhi ji and it is hard to believe that he was not involved in any decision related to Partition.The final nail, however, was struck on 13th January,1948.Pakistan had demanded a sum of Rs 55 crores, a huge sum at that time from the newly formed state of India.
Majority of Congress leaders were opposed to giving the money to Pakistan and the central government turned down the demand. But Gandhi ji started a fast unto death, due to which, government had to sanction the sum to Pakistan. And it was then, that Godse took the decision to kill Gandhi ji.Following the assassination of Mohandas Gandhi, he was put on trial beginning May 27, 1950 at Peterhoff, Shimla which housed the Punjab High Court.On November 8 1950, Godse delivered his statements in court enunciating the reasons and motives for the assassination.
That's not Ghandi dancing, idiot.
