League Against Gandhism

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The League Against Gandhism, initially known as the Gandhi Boycott Committee, was a political organisation in Calcutta, India, founded by the underground Communist Party of India and others to launch militant anti-Imperialist activities. The name of the group referred to the opposition of the communists to the compromise politics of Gandhi. The group took the name ‘League Against Gandhism’ in 1934.[1]
