To The Conference - Daily Express, London, England, 1931.
British and Indian delegations to the second Round Table Conference travel in pomp on an elephant, symbolizing India. But Gandhi, the representative of the National Congress, follows on foot and sets off fireworks to scare the elephant and prevent agreement on constitutional changes. This is how the Daily Express, London, the mouthpiece of Tory diehardism on India, saw Gandhi and his role in the national movement.
