Who was Charles Freer Andrews? Why did Gandhi oppose his help in Champaran battle for peasants?

Or

How did Gandhi convince the lawyers about Charles Freer Andrews?

Solution

In early Champaran action, Charles Freer Andrew, the English pacifist, became a devoted follower of Gandhi. Before going on a tour to duty to Fizi islands he came to bid Gandhi farewell. Gandhi’s lawyer friends wanted him to stay and help them. Gandhi strongly opposed it. If they get an Englishman on their side it would show the weakness of their heart. They must rely on themselves to win the battle.
