- its "Gandhi", not "Ghandi". - Lord Mountbatten was the last Viceroy of British India. During his tenure, Muhammed Ali Jinnah represented to him that the Muslim population would like their own country. Eventually Mounbattten agreed, and thats how India and Pakistan came to be separate nations. - Whilst all of the above was happening, Mr Gandhi did the best he could to lobby the Brits and Mr Jinnah, to try and achive a unified India.
