Jan Smuts was the president of South Africa when Ghandi organized South Asian workers to protest poor working conditions. The resulting strikes and uprisings were forcefully put down by the Smuts administration, which resulted in international condemnation. Contrary to the previous answer to this question, there were not millions of Hindu killed. Unfortunately there were some killed during the crackdown, but those numbered 20 some dead, not millions.

General Smuts was a prominent South African statesman and politician, known for his opposition to British Imperialism. He and Gandhi interacted during the Indian independence movement, with Smuts initially being an adversary as he introduced discriminatory laws against Indian South Africans. However, their relationship evolved, with Gandhi engaging in negotiations to improve the rights of Indians in South Africa, leading to some concessions from Smuts.
