Some People in India have
made a saint out of Mahatma Gandhi .
Whereas he was a very religious person. He died after someone shot him ,when he was coming out of Birla temple after offering prayers at Birla temple , a famous temple in New Delhi.
Whereas the real people who contributed for the Home rule are long forgotten.
One of that real person was Annie Bessant.Founder of congress party in India.(which still rules the country)
She spent her entire life for the upliftment of the poor in India .
She began to write attacks on the churches and the way they controlled people's lives. In particular she attacked the status of the Church of England as a state-sponsored faith.
