    THE MAN WITH LOIN CLOTH

    - I Augustine Anbananthan
    -
    Narrator:- Let us get back into the pre-independence period, say 1945. There
    have been many episodes in the life of our Father of the Nation- the
    Mahatma. We present before you one such incident where we find the unity of
    our leaders and the right attitude and the sacrificial tendency of Mahatma
    Gandhi.

    Nehruji: friends we are all gathered here to go on a journey to achieve our


    goal. Leaders representing all communities have undertaken a decision to go
    to Dehli and meet the British authorities to have a peaceful talk and press for
    Purna Swaraj. Let us pray and hope we attain our target.

    Dr. Ambedkar: when we meet the foreign rulers we shall assure them of our
    strength and power to run a government of our own constitution to treat all our
    citizens equally.

    Sardar Patel: We shall also prove that the scattered states and provinces of
    our country will be brought under a single nation

    Md. Ali Jinnah: Justice will be done to all. No individual, no religion, no


    community will be affected. We shall strive our best to build this as a Secular
    country.

    Mahatma Gandhi: We have travelled a long way to come up to this stage of


    peace talks. We have tried all methods in the way of non-violence. Struggle in
    the non-violence way has been very successful. I want my country to be the
    harbinger of peace to the world. We shall ever strive to bring justice to the
    downtrodden. We must aim as ‘Gram Rajya’. The time is ripe for getting our
    freedom. Stop all the agitation. Representations of all people will go to Delhi
    to have a talk. Please pray for us as we go.

    (suddenly one small boy releases himself from his mother and runs towards
    Gandhiji)

    The Mother: Munna, don’t go there. Come back.

    (The boy goes near Gandhiji and pulls his shawl. Gandhiji turns to him)

    Gandhiji: My dear son, What do you want?

    The Boy: Bapuji why are you wearing only a dhoti and a shawl?

    Gandhiji: Why? Don’t you like this?

    The Boy: It is all right. But you are going to talk to the Britishers, who are well
    dressed with suit and coat! You are going to them with this dress?
    Gandhiji: You are a very bold boy. Who are you?
    The Boy: I am the son of a tailor. My mother stitches nice dress. Shall I ask
    her to stitch a nice Kurta Pyjama for you? Or, for the present, you may wear a
    new set of my father’s dress.

    Gandhiji: Thank you. I am very glad. You offer me dress. You are a nice boy.
    Have you seen any Indians wearing this sort of Dress, my boy?

    The Boy: Yes, Bapuji, the farmers wear this.

    Gandhiji: They wear this dress in all the seasons. Be it summer, winter or
    rainy. They don’t even have a spare one. Once, I was also wearing coat and
    shirt, but after seeing my own Indian brothers and sisters suffering so much. I
    want to be one among them, I want to know their sufferings and help them
    out, that’s why I am wearing this dhoti and shawl.

    Nehruji : The only way out of this problem is freedom.

    Gandhiji : Yes, once we are free, all Indians will get the fruit of their labout. All
    can earn their food, shelter and clothes. Till then let me continue to be like
    this. Thank you boy. Come on, let us march on. Jai Hind!

    All : Jai Hind!
