“Freedom was not achieved just because of non-violence movement. The contribution of revolutionaries should not be sidelined. Non-violence in India as a part of freedom struggle began in 1905 till 1945. India strangely got Independence along with loss of massive areas due to partition. The root cause of partition was vote bank politics, that unfortunately still continuing resulting in increasing the divide” He added.
