why ????????
Naashak
Hi members,
Many great leaders including Gandhi fought for the freedom of our country. And many leaders lost their life in that process. But why only Gandhiji's image is present on our currency note. Do other leaders deserves it or not? Please give your opinion about this.
Comments
At old times,Indian coins had king Gupta's image imprinted. Who deserved it more? The Kings who owns them,Chanakya who made him King or the soldiers who ensure that he remains the king?
Indian politicians have no guts to put other leaders image. If they put one leader, a party member will ask to imprint their leader image.
Btw

I do not think it's looking down at other leaders.
Gandhi might gone on hunger strike to get the image removed imo, you know stubborn old men 😛
Gandhi's image is on our notes because Nehru of Congress became the first Prime Minister.
If Patel or Bose became our first Prime Minister, it could have been someone else's image on our notes.
yes
For your kindest information, Patel was staunch follower of Gandhi and he would have done the same 😛
Stop believing things which others tell you, get knowledge on yourself and then pass judgements
Are you an idiot?
Both of them, Patel and Bose were from the INC.
Which is Indian National Congress.
Banish your idiocracy from this country man. Don't reproduce, you will most probably breed children as moronic as you.
Idiot.
I guess you forgot about the All India Forward Bloc !
..maybe you should go back to your history books.
lets start a petition to replace gandhi with Bhagat singh as Father of Nation
Well i came down to write this... but not as father of nation...😛
I will be the first one to go against it no matter in Real Life or e-Life
Rulers write history. If it was Hindu Mahasabha, it would have been Godse and Gandhi would have been the villian
So you mean Gandhian gang was the ruler ? Let me tell you the fact that forefathers of Hindu Mahasabha constituted majority of early Congress.
maybe maybe not. I don't know. All I know is that history was written was Nehru.
Not all. Many patriots preserved it. You just need to look at trusty source to find about the oldest of days
Yes , i had the same doubt guys . Thnx for asking the question Naga and thnx to u guys for clearing my doubt . 😃
Coz, the note was too small and had no space for the 100 Crore indians' photos to be added as all were leaders. So the one who led the leaders got the place..
i forgot to laugh .remind me tomorrow
I know 😛 ( i am not good at making jokes 🙁 )
If you have ever seen the movie 'Gandhi' by Richard Attenborough. You'd know why.
Gandhi was and will be a symbol of non-violent struggle. India WAS, IS and WILL BE because of Gandhiji's struggles.
Let's not discredit the 'Father' of our nation because of the other 'Gandhis'.
Though, I am not discrediting the other freedom fighters. Without Bose bearing down the british's neck, they wouldn't have resorted to Gandhiji.
show me the clause in the constitution which say Gandhi is Father of Indian nation ..........that just some fairy tail made by Congress for kids
Father of the nation is a title give to him just like Iron man of India title given to Patel
Take our Freedom Fighter medal.
Barely anyone contributes in the early battles, the occupiers fight to keep the region, not everyone from the resistance contributes because of a lack of confidence.
But there are some, who give everything, to fight and they inspire the rest. With great difficulty when they achieve the initial victory (when the points are at 33-0 or 44-0), then it inspires the rest of the resistance. They want to be a part of the freedom struggle and win it. I am not calling them selfish, they're normal people who just required the glimmer or victory to fill them up with confidence. It even inspires others to pitch in, others who had no part in the struggle want to contribute to put their names there in the epic victory for the fight of freedom.
It was that one man. The first one.
If that man wasn't there. The first one, the scenario would be 0-11 or 0-22 and very few would have contributed to the battle.
Just one battle, but a victory that resonated through the rest of the rounds.
Gandhiji was that one warrior.
Nice question buddy.I would like to give my opinion on this:-1)If one sees Gandhis note wen he is angry atleast he will calm down,will have tolerance,
2)Never to forget Father of our nation
3)Bhagat singh and others used weapons the Britishers also fought back with weapons but Gandhi didnt use weapons only through non-violence but britishers never was able to do the same.Britishers oly knew to use weapon
Ok, so My Opinion not a joke this time,
Everyone deserves a place in our freedom struggle, all those who fought the battle, supported it silently, died in it, everyone...
But what the problem in the early days of the struggle was , the lack of co-ordination. Gandhi in maybe history's most "unbelievable" way, became a leader, a representative, who could bring everyone together, or atleast most people together..
So he became the sign of the entire Freedom Struggle and everyone who is part of it ..
Now for the Reason why his photo stays in the Note,
Its not only his position of "Father of the Nation" that I think, has won him a place there, The Currency note shows his picture as he is the symbol of peace, truth and unity for the nation. He was "SAID" to be the Most Peace-loving, Truthful Person who wanted a Unified Nation. So the main Reason, according to me why his picture is on the currency is bcoz to encourage people to be truthful while using this prestigeous Currency note and see some value in it.. One has to be peaceful while handling it, and in choosing ways in making it.. And One has to have a value to the Note too, You are not giving 100 Rs Paper to a person, When u do that, You have to abide by all Gandhian Values .. So According to me, The True reason why Gandhi's Photo is on the currency is to symbolize the following of all Gandhian Values in the Creation, Exchange and Use of the Indian Ruppe..
(Not A JOKE) 😛
can any one show me any clause in constitution or a bill passed in Parliament which says Gandhi is "Father" of Indian Nation??????
It's not. It is a title bestowed on him by his countrymen.
It is just something we made up, no title like that exists and u knw that 😛
Because he forge the nation as it is today ?
What is the problem here? india has 40-50% illiterate population. We are not able to stop illegal money printing even when we have same image on all notes. If we have 10 different people image then it will be more difficult. After 10 leaders, who is going to stop at 10 leaders and then somebody will ask what about next 10 leaders then somebody will ask about cricketers or Bollywood actors image. Where do we stop?
We need to look forward not backward as these are non issues.
It has the image of Gandhi because everyone listened to him...and everyone listens when money talks...
Because Mahatma Gandhi is the one who united us all....
till he came on to the scene, everyone was fighting their own battles....
Gandhi is the one who harnessed everyone's energy and gave it direction to trouble the occupiers (which we are not able to do in eRep - we can't even do it in the game and question the one who could do it in real life)
A leader who is respected worldwide, but not in his own country (no wonder we were under occupation for centuries)
.
the most ignored guy is the man called gandhi "father of nation". no govt, not congresss nt bjp has evr done anythng to find out his actual whereabouts, we r made to belive he died in an air crash, but there are proves he was still alive during the war of 1971!!!!!! evn our leaders dared to award him the bharat ratna, seriously????????? u r awarding a man who actually toiled to create bharat, bharat ratna???????? shame, whiceva party comes to power they glorify there leaders!!!!!!! this is a the biggest tragedy of our nation.
P.S. i'm frm staunch communist family and we worship netaji as god!!!!!

1. May be tribute to him by congress which shared majority
2. India is know for ideals like non violence, truth etc even before Gandhi era. Best way to represent it is by image of Gandhi.
3. To prevent people from using the money for wrong doings
good question..
