What was Gandhi’s view on totalitarian state and why he opposed fascism?

Mahatma Gandhi's political philosophy was rooted in the principles of nonviolence (ahimsa) and truth (satya), and he vehemently opposed any form of authoritarianism, including the totalitarian states of his time. Totalitarianism, characterized by centralized control, repression of individual freedoms, and the absolute power of a single leader or party, stood in direct opposition to Gandhi's ideals of self-rule (swaraj), individual autonomy, and social harmony.

Gandhi's opposition to totalitarianism and fascism was not merely a reaction to specific political systems, but was based on his broader ethical and philosophical beliefs about the nature of human society and governance. He saw the totalitarian state as a system that would perpetuate violence, suppress individual dignity, and undermine human freedom, all of which were antithetical to his vision of a just society. Gandhi’s ideas were grounded in the belief that true power resides in the hands of individuals and communities, not in a centralized state or authoritarian leader.

One of the primary reasons Gandhi opposed totalitarian states, including fascism, was that they employed violence as a tool of political control. Fascist regimes, led by __________ ________ _______ ____ _______ __________ _______.
