IT TOOK HIM 32 LONG YEARS TO PROVE HE'S A FREEDOM FIGHTER - Mumbai Mirror

"The fight with our own people was tougher. We were better off in the RAJ era."

If the gentleman really believes that, what stops him from going to London, where the Brits will lionize him, where the Queen may even put him on her Honours List.

Obviously the gentleman has never heard of Jallianwala Baug. Perhaps he has not heard of Lala Lajpat Rai, who was beaten up while leading a procession. And as a result, contracted TB and died.
