Remembering Gandhi
Today is the 60th anniversary of the death of India's freedom icon, Mahatma Gandhi.
The last urn of his ashes will be scattered across the Arabian Sea this morning by the Mahatma's great granddaughter, Nilamben Parikh.
Gandhi was assassinated by a fanatic Hindu on January 30, 1948.
WALK WITH US, that's how I had remembered the Mahatma in this blog.

Why is it that all Leaders always die prematurely AND violently?
Gandhi as mentioned in the annals of history; assassinated. Abe Lincoln, JFK, Robert Kennedy, all of them met their fates too soon. Same thing happens to the late Benazir Bhutto prior to the Pakistan General Elections.
