And for those Gandhi Loving Savarkar Haters..Answer this !

Gandhi was 14 years elder to Savarkar, but by the time Gandhi came into freedom struggle, Savarkar had already served 5 years of Rigorous Imprisonment at Andaman. And the first recorded arrest of Gandhi was in 1922, by then Veer Savarkar had completed his Andaman Journey.

And lastly, Gandhi came to Bharat at the age of 46, in 1915. Didn’t he know the atrocities of British here? What took him so long to make a decision?
