RRB Railway Bharti Mock Test 16

How clearly do I remember the first time I saw Gandhiji, in 1931, at Folkestone, on a cold foggy and rainy day, when I waited with few others on the pier to greet him, when crossing the English Channel, he landed upon English shores to take his seat at the Round Table Conference of the day. I found myself talking with an English Policeman, who suddenly pointed up the coast to the Chalky cliffs of the channel and said: “Do you know, just round those cliffs is the place where Julius Caesar came when he invaded Britain.” Then after a moment’s silence, he turned in the other direction and said : “Only a few miles down the coast there, beyond the fog-bank, is the place where William the conqueror landed just before the battle of Hastings.” Just that moment or so it seemed the prow of the Mahatma’s ship came poking through the fog. And for once in my life I had an inspiration I said within myself , “Here comes the third and the greatest conqueror of Britain”, Little did I realize at that time that it would take only sixteen years for Britain to retire from India and for Mahatma Gandhi thus to stand the conqueror of  the greatest empire the world had seen and since the decline and fall of Rome. He was a curious looking conqueror. I can see him now as he came from the ship and went patterning up wet and foggy pier to the train that was waiting to take him to London, Julius Ceasar and William the conqueror had been clad in mail, but Gandhi wore only his loin cloth and a small Khaddar Shawl drawn closely around his shoulder.
