Can you record police officers in public?

It depends. Usually, in a public place, anything is public property and you're free to film it. This is the reason why CCTV is allowed. However, there are some situations which you will not be allowed to film. For example, secret operations by intelligence agencies. Capturing these on film will result in an extremely heavy fine and confiscation of electronic equipment such as cameras and computers - under the Official Secrets Act (or an equivalent law depending on country). It is also a persons right that they are not filmed when requested. So, if a public servant tells you to stop filming, you must obey.

Why does Gandhi continue to burn the passes even after the police officers reaction?

That scene, from Richard Attenborough's biopic film of Mahatma Gandhi, is semi-fictional. While Gandhi did encourage fellow Indians and Asians to burn their registration papers, he was never beaten by the police for that action as depicted in the film. Artistically, however, Attenborough takes license with Gandhi's life at that point to depict the depth of Gandhi's commitment to his principles of non-violent resistance. The director has Gandhi continue burning the passes, demonstrating that he considered himself equal to his oppressors even while they continued their oppressive actions.
