Counsellor for petitioner Praveen Yogi said few days back VHP leader Sadhvi Prachi in a programme in UP had alleged that Mahatma Gandhi was a "British agent" and his contribution towards independence of the country was "negligible". She went on to say that Gandhian ways of protests and hunger strikes were worthless in achieving freedom.
