Mohit I am appalled, not only at your poor understanding of our history, but also the free software world. Please dont be disrespectful to people and individuals. If you look at the ideological level, Free Software is very similar to the idea of Non-Cooperation; similarly, you can map various gandhian philosophies with free software stuff.
Having said that, I will agree with you on the part that RMS and Gandhi should not be compared. Both were individuals in different times, who lived in different socio-economic and political environments. Comparing them is like comparing oranges and peaches, even when both campaigned for freedom. Lets not do a comparision of who is/was better. That would be a stupid comparision.
