Answer:
Mahatma Gandhi needed an education system which would help Indians recover their self respect and sense of dignity.In the minds of Indians colonial education created a sense of inferiority as per Mahatma Gandhi.Gandhi said Western education destroyed the pride that the Indians had in their own culture and created a sense of superior feeling about the Western civilisation.Mahatma Gandhi said colonial education cast an evil spell on Indians, it enslaved Indians, it was sinful and said there was poison in this education.The admiration for British rule started rising among Indians educated in colonial instititions.To show to the British that Indians were no longer willing to be enslaved, Gandhi urged the students to leave educational institutions during the national movement.Mahatma Gandhi was of the strong opinion that the medium of teaching has to be in Indian languages.As per Gandhi, education in English made them strangers in their own lands, distanced them from their own social surroundings and crippled Indians.
