Question

what according to gandhijii is the"ideal of trusteeship

Answer 1

Trusteeship is a socio-economic philosophy that was propounded by Mahatma Gandhi[1]. It provides a means by which the wealthy people would be the trustees of trusts that looked after the welfare of the people in general. This concept was condemned by socialists as being in favor of the landlords, feudal princes and the capitalists, opposed to socialist theories.[2] Gandhi believed that the rich people could be persuaded to part with their wealth to help the poor. Putting it in Gandhiji's words "Supposing I have come by a fair amount of wealth – either by way of legacy, or by means of trade and industry – I must know that all that wealth does not belong to me; what belongs to me is the right to an honourable livelihood, no better than that enjoyed by millions of others. The rest of my wealth belongs to the community and must be used for the welfare of the community." [1] Gandhi along with his followers, after their release from prison formulated a "simple" and a "practical" formula where Trusteeship was explained.

Answer 2

Gandhi's doctrine of Trusteeship is a social and economic philosophy aiming to bring justice in the society.

Gandhi ji viewed that the wealthy people in society holds wealth and property, not by virtue of being owners but by virtue of being trustee of there wealth and properties because all means of production are associated with all the people in the society. This wealth belongs to all and wealthy must use it in such a way that it achieves end(i.e. fulfills the need of all).
