	Description:		On Gandhi Jayanti, we speak to Professor Vinayak Chaturvedi about the many criticisms of Mahatma Gandhi. From BR Ambedkar's critique to the Feminist Critique. He talks about Gandhi's legacy now and in the future, and answers a pertinent question: If Gandhi is the father of the nation, is Savarkar the Ghost father of the nation? Professor Vinayak Chaturvedi teaches history at the University of California, Irvine. He's also the author of 'Hindutva and Violence: VD Savarkar and the Politics of History,' which was published this year.
