Gandhi kept maran-brath to get Pakistan its due resources. No ? That was nice of him.
Maun-Brat is a day thing, on monday's gandhi usually never spoke to relax his vocal cords
For Pakistan, Gandhi kept Aamaran Anshan, Fast unto death so that people in Delhi stop rioting and India release all the pending money of Pakistan
He was also able to stop riot in eastern border with East Pakistan and was about to go to Karachi to do the same, Mountabatten also recorded that his one-man force was able to achieve miracle in Bengal which entire Punjab Boundary Force couldn't :)
