RIGHT TO BE NEUTRAL
CONTENTIONS BY GANDHI. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) MADRAS, October 17. In a statement, Mahatma Gandhi said: “My primary consideration is a resolve not to embarrass Britain. We will never in the slightest interfere with those who wish to give active support to Britain, but India has been denied the right to neutrality which Mr de Valera enjoys and which General Hertzog claimed. This contrast is painful.” Vinod Bhave, a disciple of Mahatma Gandhi, was arrested at Paunar when he launched the first individual civil disobedience campaign planned by the Congress Party, making a speech in pouring rain before 300 people.
