Explanation

Gandhi suffered a severe malaria attack in 1944 while he was imprisoned at the Aga Khan Palace in Pune. Due to his deteriorating health and the recent death of his wife Kasturba, the British government released him unconditionally on May 6, 1944. This release was intended to avoid the political fallout of him dying in custody.
