At the bottom of the letter, Gandhi writes "I see that I must reserve the right hand for N.J.". And the caption at the bottom says "Left hand."

Do you suppose that means that Gandhi deliberately wrote this letter with his left hand?

Yes. His right hand isn't any better, though, in fact: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Gandhi_handwriting2.j...

   When his right hand got tired, he wrote with the left.
   His left-hand writing was more legible.
