Gandhiji's name & fame is not depending upon street name.

Anyone's disagreement dosen't change the reality or respact the world has towards such great leader.

It was india's independence movement which diminished the reach of the British Empire in 1947 and increased the pressure in Arab emirates for a British to withdraw during the 1950s.

So...indirectly gulf got independence because of India's independence....no such leader emerged from the Gulf region at that point of time and shown courage to challenge British imperialism like Gandhi did.
