What are the central beliefs of Judaism?
The philosophy of Judaism is that this world is a purposeful creation by God*, in which all people are tested concerning their use of free-will. We possess a soul which lives on after the body dies and is held responsible for the person's actions. Anyone who is worthy, Jewish or not, can merit reward in the afterlife.
Here is a list of the most basic beliefs of Judaism, as collated by Maimonides:
1. God exists, and is the Creator.
This tells us that the world is not purposeless or chaotic. Life is the result of a deliberate, purposeful, intelligent and kind Creator; not a melancholy chaos or a string of fortuitous accidents.
2. God is One and unique.
This is the basis of all Western monotheistic belief, which was given to the world by Abraham and his descendants. This belief places God at the center of reality and of our world-outlook and thoughts.
3. God is not physical.
This includes the corollary that no person should be worshiped as God or as a god. Judaism has no god-kings, no demigods, no angel who flouts God's will, and no sports-idols, movie-idols etc.
4. God is eternal.
This includes the belief that God's ways are also eternal. God is not capricious, forgetful or fickle. Investing in a relationship with God is the only thing that will bear eternal benefits.
5. Prayer is to be directed only to God.
This also teaches us that no person, government or institution is to be accorded blind trust. We pray directly to God, three times a day; and we recount our shortcomings, ask for our needs, and acknowledge our successes with happy thanks.
6. The words of the prophets are true.
8. The Torah was given to Moses by God.
These two beliefs are the basis of our attitude towards the Torah: it is the center of our lives. Jews are keeping mitzvot (commands), saying blessings, praying, learning Torah and doing acts of kindness and charity all the time. The Torah is the single greatest thing that a Jew has; given to us to provide knowledge, guidance, inspiration, awe and reverence, advice, law, comfort, history and more. It is the basis of Judaism.
9. There will be no other Torah.
We Jews have been around for 3800 years. New fads, manifestos, beliefs or lifestyles which rear their heads are met by the Jew with a calm, seasoned eye and the proverbial grain of salt. The Torah doesn't change; and every new thing can be measured against the Torah's standards.
10. God knows the thoughts and deeds of all.
11. God rewards the good and punishes the wicked.
These two beliefs provide a vast incentive towards righteousness and, when needed, repentance.
They also form part of the basis of our belief in the afterlife, since this entire world wouldn't be enough to reward a Moses or punish a Hitler.
God is just (Deuteronomy 32:4); and all outstanding accounts are settled after this life.
12. The Messiah will come.
13. The dead will be resurrected.
Judaism is the only ancient religion which taught optimism; and a large part of that optimism was and is based upon the words of the prophets.
What did Gandhi do for the untouchables?
He used "peaceful protest", and "non-cooperation methods", as well as organizing marches, civil disobedience, he even used fasting as a tool of protest.
Edited-
He helped to raise the standard of untouchables by calling them "Harijans" meaning "God's People". He wanted to spread the feeling of quality and respect among everyone. He had done the same thing in South Africa too. He made an Ashram where he lived with the untouchables and organized public dinner where people of all communities would come and eat together.
History is a lie, agreed upon. Nothing defines that more than the Prohibitionists gossip about Ganja and there demonizing of users. Media censorship kept the public from being informed. Any celebrity, especially holy, were never exposed for their use. Such a common practice and against the English, why wouldn't he join in the practice. Nnsense, cannabis is a supplement of the human body's endoCannabinoid Sysem. All ancient religions knew of its value. Since the 1937 prohibition in the US, generations of citizens are ECS Deficient. More likely to obey authoritarians.

☛ How many of you think Gandhiji may have smoked weed? quora
"At the age of twelve, Gandhi began to smoke. And he stole from elders in the house to finance the transgression. His partner in the adventure was a young relative. Sometimes both were penniless; then they made cigarettes from the porous stalks of a wild plant. This interest in botany led to the discovery that the seeds of a jungle weed named dhatura were poisonous. Off they went to the jungle on the successful quest. Tired of life under parental supervision, they joined in a suicide pact. They would die, appropriately in the temple of God."

Which system -a federal or unitary is favourable for India and why?
Since the late 1960s, India's federalsystem has experienced severe strain incenter-state relations. Such strain was almost nonexistent during the first generation of Indian federalism (1950-1966). During the second generation, which followed the death of Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri in 1966, the rise of a powerful leader of the ruling Congress party, Indira Gandhi, and the emergence of dissent inside the party led to a greater emphasis on centralization and regimentation within the party and, thereby, the federalsystem as well. At the same time, economic development had helped to produce new political elites from rural areas who benefited from the "green revolution" of the 1960s. These new elites challenged the professional and industrial elites who had long controlled the Congress party, the national government, and many state governments. Feeling frustrated in their efforts to influence national economic policy in a significant way, these new elites have formulated demands that call forsubstantial decentralization, greater state autonomy, andmore tolerance for opposition parties whose electoral support is mainly state-based.

What did Gandhi do in the Amritsar Massacre of 1920?
Gandhi didnt hear of the massacre until June. He took his actions After that. He supported the construction of two monuments in remembrance of the people that died (one of them was the well people had jumped in to try and save themselves). He then called upon for national satyagraha. This included his 'Non-Cooperation campaign'. He believed that the limited 351 British officials in India, could not manage to govern the 300, 000, 000 Indians living in India if they simply refused to cooperate. This campaign included the boycott of foreign goods, the spinning of cotton, and hartals. This worked for quite a while and for some time people thought the British were going to have to leave, but then some Indians started getting restless with the slow progress and violence started to break out. they mobbed some british officials into a flaming building till they were burnt to death. Because Gandhi's strongest moral was no-violence, he called off the campaign straight away.
hope that helped...Essy.p.s the amritsar massacre was in 1919, not 1920. There was only one memorial built to honor those who passed on.
