Aligarh: “National independence is not enough alone as Mahatma Gandhi saw it as a means of empowering the individual Indian to express dissent fearlessly. He was against coercion in religious matters and in June 1947 two months before freedom, Gandhi said if someone comes to me and forces me not to utter Ram naam, I will utter Ram naam even at the point of the sword. I will defend my faith and conviction with my life”, said Prof Rajmohan Gandhi (Research Professor, University of Illinois) while delivering the online lecture on “Does the Arc of History bend towards Justice? Some Reflections”, organised by the Sir Syed Academy, Aligarh Muslim University under the AMU Centenary Celebrations Lecture Series.
