PUNE, MAHATMA GANDHI, AGHA KHAN PALACE JAIL

     Today 30 Jan 2011 reminded me my visit to PUNE the place where Mahatma Gandhi was under house arrest for 2 years, and the place where Kasturi Bai Gandhi expired.  During 1990 I visited Pune to receive the MRSI medal award at NCL Pune.  It was that time, I have taken the Pune sight seeing bus."My experiments with truth"  an autobiography  of Mahatma Gandhi has been my favorite book since my childhood.  Around the Nineties, I could get the book from a friend, and read the same several times.

      Today, being 30 Jan the day of assassination   of Mahatma Gandhi, my memories go back to the events that influenced the way that my mind reacts to the day to day situations and during crisis situations.  20 years  I visited the place, I distinctly remember the Kasturba Gandhi Samadhi and the hall where the charaka and other things used by Gandhiji have been displayed but, I wish to visit the place once again.
