Thanks for this great idea of compiling and sharing experiences of people during Independance and after.

 

The sorry state is that very rarely does a school visit the Mani
Bhavan.If they do, then they are ‘ quickly’  going through the
motions As a tourist guide, I am there frequently and have seen very
few Indians visiting it. Our foreign Atithees are overwhelmed by what
they see and read there and some are teary-eyed after it.South African
Indians are aghast at the idea of having to pay an entry fee here and
proudly state that such landmarks ( cocerning Gandhiji) back home are
freely open to all !
