v1 Chapter 242: Gandhi announces hunger strike

, the fastest update of the latest chapter of British Civil Service!

Are you not the Mahatma, non-violent non-cooperation? Do we really think our British Empire is a piece of paper?

Regarding the issue of children being emotional and not eating, Alan Wilson, who has been severely beaten by society, has only one wise saying, beating lightly!

If it weren't for the severe damage to the British mainland after two world wars, there is a clear enemy and a suspicious ally in Nabibi, what does it have to do with London if you starve yourself to death?

Gandhi's hunger strike was supported by the international environment. This was not a game.

Gandhi went on hunger strike nearly 20 times in his life, each for a different reason.

He went on hunger strike for the first time because a girl and two boys in the village of India committed serious deviant behavior. Gandhi, who was 44 years old, decided to go on a hunger strike for seven days, and nearly four and a half months after that. , eat only one meal a day.

To mediate the relationship between the two major religions, to oppose colonial rule, and so on, the hunger strike methods vary, and the duration of the hunger strike varies.

Now that British India is facing drought, and the British Empire needs you to go on a hunger strike, please accept it with the courage of a saint.

Alan Wilson's words didn't have a lot of rhetoric in them. Although they were hints, they were also very straightforward.

"I don't know Mr. Allen, what do you think I can do?" Gandhi looked at the Englishman across the table with deep eyes, and he already had a guess in his heart.

"If there was a man of broad appeal to lead this campaign to save food, British India's consumption would certainly be greatly reduced. Many people would probably not have starved to death. But few have that kind of fame. Alan Wilson said looking at Gandhi himself with expectant eyes, "There is just one..."

Gandhi hasn't spoken yet, and Nehru can't bear it anymore. This is moral kidnapping! British India has contributed so much to the British Empire, now there is a problem for Gandhi to go on a hunger strike? "I heard right!"

"Not at all. If one person can save one meal a day, then the entire subcontinent does not know how much food each person can save every day. This is a very simple arithmetic problem, isn't it?" Alan Wilson tilted his head confidently. He asked back, "Any trivial matter multiplied by the population of the subcontinent becomes huge, and any stormy event, divided by the population of the subcontinent, will also become insignificant. This is a self-help solution that we have come up with after careful consideration."

The implication of moral kidnapping, Alan Wilson does not deny in his heart, there is indeed such a thing.

But it can't be said completely, what is Gandhi famous for? Isn't it a hunger strike? This is the character of Gandhi, the saint, and now the gentlemen are going to use Gandhi's character as a saint. What's wrong with this?

You can even go on a hunger strike for cheating women in a neighboring village. Now that British India is facing such a big famine, you, a leader fighting for independence, have a great opportunity to buy people’s hearts, so why not make good use of it?

Alan Wilson was never ready to be rejected, and certainly wasn't.

I already understood that the clown was actually my own Gandhi, reached out to block Nehru's accusation, and said slowly, "If I can lead the food saving movement and prevent millions of people from starving to death, of course I am an old man. It is obligatory.”

"In all fairness we don't want Mr. Gandhi to do this, but only Mr. Gandhi has such prestige and influence." Sir Barron put Gandhi on a tall hat of the right size and settled the matter directly, "If Mr. Gandhi has this kind of prestige and influence." Being able to play a huge leading role, I believe that the food pressure on British India will be significantly reduced."

The members of the Congress Party had mixed feelings, and felt that the British meant to bully honest people.

But Gandhi himself did not refuse. Why should the demons and monsters in Alan Wilson's eyes object?

"This is what I should do. If everyone in the entire subcontinent can save a meal, there will be extra food to help others." Gandhi has entered the state of a saint, and since he agreed, he will make some preparations.

The gesture was awe-inspiring, with Sir Barron standing up first, followed by other British representatives to pay homage to Gandhi and reverence for the saint among men.

If it weren't for the unsuitable atmosphere, Alan Wilson really wanted to suggest that even water could be saved. Only drinking cow urine can express the determination of Hindus to fight the drought. Drinking more cow urine saves a sip of water and is more able to fight the drought.

Although the agenda on harmony between the two parties has failed, our agenda of asking Gandhi to go on a hunger strike has succeeded. In general, this tripartite meeting has achieved great results. As for Nehru's request, the Governor's Office has also carefully considered and decided to arrange a dialogue between the Congress Party and the Muslim League. After calculating the time, the London side should also start, just in time to come together.

"Mr. Gandhi, the British are kidnapping morally." After leaving the Governor's Palace, Nehru finally couldn't help but say.

"But there is some truth to what they said. It is very important to save food in a drought." Gandhi shook his head indifferently and said, "If I can contribute a little bit of strength to promote the development of the food saving movement, there will really be many people. I won't be starved to death, I believe it will be effective."

The effect will definitely be there, and if there is no effect, Alan Wilson will not make this kind of suggestion. In the entire subcontinent, as long as 10,000 people imitate Gandhi, that can save thousands of people.

"Assistant, the reception is ready. It's tossing us at noon." Edel, the commissioner's private secretary, came to inform Alan Wilson that the evening reception was ready.

At this time, Alan Wilson took back his gaze from the window and replied easily, "Prepare me a glass of whisky, to be honest, it's really hard, and I have to share the joys and sorrows, but I can't really share the joys and sorrows, otherwise the expatriates in New Delhi. What do you think of us? By the way, don’t talk nonsense when you get home, the Governor’s Office claims to have two meals a day.”

"Everyone has communicated and will never talk nonsense. The Governor's Office is going to carry out a two-meal campaign for a month. Come and practice the progress of the food saving campaign." Eder nodded solemnly, "The United Province telegram Now, ask about the progress of this negotiation."

"Mr. Burke is in a hurry. There are indeed more people in the United Province. Just follow the standards of our Governor's Palace. It is announced that the supply of food for one meal will be reduced during the drought. Indians can't enter Burke's official residence to watch. Is he?" Alan Wilson pondered for a while.

"If you do this, Mr. Burke will probably order the shooting." Edel chuckled. Burke was the chief executive of Bangladesh Province during the Great Bengal Famine, but now he has been transferred.

The Governor's Palace was brightly lit that night, and the lights were transmitted far away, indicating that during the drought, the Governor's Palace was working all night. For the civil servants of the Governor's Palace, the subcontinent has suffered such a huge natural disaster. As the administrators of British India, they can only make some insignificant contributions. When they are lost, they can only choose to use alcohol to numb themselves.

The Governor's Office of New Delhi has officially started to promote the food saving movement. Official documents have been distributed to all provinces and states, and they have called for reports to expose the intentional waste of food during the food saving movement.

The Supreme Court upheld this type of whistleblower behavior, saying that deliberately wasting food during a drought was absolutely morally bad.

The executive and judicial officials once again sang together, and passed an executive order to let the British Indian newspapers fully publish the call for the British India to save food movement and encourage the whistleblower to combat wasteful behavior.

Will this undermine democracy? It's just a joke, how can there be such a thing in the colony?

The vigorous campaign to save food has aroused great repercussions in all walks of life in British India through the newspapers. In fact, most of the voices are in favor. After all, in this difficult time, the Governor's Office of British India has been so responsible this time. Different from a few years ago.

Some people have even begun to believe that the Great Bengal Famine occurred entirely because of the war period. Because of the influence of the war, there were famines in many places, which had nothing to do with the British.

If Alan Wilson hears this, consider giving the person who says it a British green card, the British Empire needs such talent.

The fermentation of public opinion has been in place. At this time, the Congress Party announced to the public that Gandhi would go on a seven-day hunger strike and shoulder the responsibility of leading this food saving movement. The Congress Party supported the leader's move and called for more People join in, save food and distribute surplus food to those who need it more.

For a time ~lightnovelpub.net~ All walks of life in India were deeply moved. Mahatma Gandhi began to cut down on food and clothing. They believed that the drought would definitely pass.

"After mediating sectarian conflicts and opposing the colonial government, he finally did something meaningful, uh..."

After burping, Alan Wilson, who was holding a fork in his hand, took a sip of whiskey and continued to attack the steak on the plate, saying vaguely, "I knew from the beginning that Gandhi would definitely agree to fight the Great Famine. , what an opportunity to gain fame, it is strange to disagree."

"Sir Barron's meaning is to praise Gandhi's behavior through public opinion." Edel wiped the grease from the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, "I don't know what kind of remarks are more appropriate."

"Man can conquer the sky? From the perspective of Hinduism, this kind of remark is inappropriate." Alan Wilson shook his head wondering, "Let's start with international public opinion, say that other countries are very shocked, have been scared to pee, and exclaimed that India is unacceptable. Victory, that's all."

On this day, Gandhi's hunger strike, which was remembered by the Indians, officially began. The whole of British India prayed in their hearts that the drought this time would pass soon. There is a claim that one can survive against this drought.
