Some quotes from the same articles that you posted. Please read them carefully, this is from the 1st one:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Professor of Indian history at Oxford University, Faisal Devji, said he thought the debate to remove the statue was "absurd".
"It seems almost surreal to have to list the many things Gandhi did," he said.
"He's a fallible man as all men are, but to lump him in with slave owners, that's a bit much."
But Prof Devji said Gandhi's "record is actually very mixed", and he was known to sympathise with Africans during the Boer and Zulu wars.
"Gandhi too was an imperfect human being, [but] imperfect Gandhi was more radical and progressive than most contemporary compatriots," he said.
Former MP Keith Vaz, who was at the unveiling of the Leicester statue in 2009, called the Indian leader "one of the greatest peacemakers in history", and said he would "defend [the statue] personally".

Second one:
Ramachandra Guha,
writer of the magisterial Gandhi Before India, writes that "to speak of comprehensive equality for coloured people was premature in early 20th Century South Africa". Attacking Gandhi for racism, wrote another commentator, "takes a
simplistic view of a complex life".
More than a century after he left Africa, there has been a resurrection of Gandhi in South Africa. Despite their reservations about the 'man of Empire', Desai and Vahed acknowledge that Gandhi "did raise universal demands for equality and dignity".
But even the greatest men are flawed. And Gandhi was possibly no exception.
My personal opinion is that Gandhi went to Africa when he was too young. He developed himself more spiritually when he came to India.

@Joe Shearer Any thoughts?
He went to jail multiple times unlike M.A. Jinnah. What will you say about that? If the Britishers are throwing a person to jail, surely that person is a big headache for the British right? Anyway, your rants are just useless and the words you have used for him clearly shows your disgusting thinking.
