Gandhi is here. An 8-foot statue of the bespectacled human rights leader, holding his famous staff, now stands in front of the Old County Courthouse. “This is the man who taught the world about the power of nonviolence,” said Garry Bhojwani, president of the Charlotte Asian Heritage Association, standing next to the statue. “Everyone knows his work, his method of peace, of sacrifice, of love.” On Tuesday, contractors hoisted the statue of Mohandas “Mahatma” Gandhi, made of bronze and weighing 1,700 pounds, onto a concrete foundation, built to withstand 150 mph winds, at Trade and Alexander streets. On Sunday, it will be officially unveiled at a public festival celebrating Indian and Asian cultures. A few members of the local Indian community gathered around the statue Tuesday afternoon, prayed, and sprinkled rice and powder on the feet of the statue as a blessing and sign of respect. “Mohandas Gandhi is the father of our universe,” said Nimish Bhatt, local director of the Universal Vedic Cultural and Educational Foundation. “Even Martin Luther King Jr. learned from him how to fight with nonviolence.” Three years ago, Bhojwani, a real estate investor, said he noticed that many major cities had Gandhi statues and decided Charlotte should also have one. He created the nonprofit organization, lobbied for county approval, found a sculptor, and underwrote the $35,000 needed to create the statue. The statue, depicting Gandhi's famous 24 ...

कभी साथ नहीं बैठ पाया गांधी का परिवार मोहनदास करमचंद गांधी और कस्तूरबा के खून से पैदा हुई संतति की संख्या बढ़कर सौ के पार हो चुकी है लेकिन इस खानदान की मौजूदा पीढ़ी को अब तक एक भी ऐसा मौका मयस्सर नहीं हो सका है कि वे एक साथ जुट सके। तारा से लेकर तुषार तक परिवार के सदस्यों को इसका मलाल भी है। महात्मा गांधी के दूसरे पुत्र मणिलाल गांधी के पौत्र तुषार गांधी ने इस बारे में पूछे जाने पर कहा कि यह नहीं हो पाया है। परिवार इतना फैल चुका है कि उसे एक साथ कर पाना मुश्किल हो गया है। उन्होंने बताया कि बापू और बा के चार पुत्रों हरिलाल, मणिलाल, रामदास और देवदास के पुत्र-पुत्रियों का वंश अब सौ से ऊपर हो चुका है और इस खानदान के कुल 130 सदस्य हिन्दुस्तान के अलावा दक्षिण अफ्रीका, अमेरिका, कनाडा इंग्लैंड और आस्ट्रेलिया आदि देशों में रह रहे हैं। इसी संदर्भ में गांधी के तीसरे पुत्र देवदास गांधी की ज्येष्ठ पुत्री तारा भट्टाचार्य ने कहा कि हमारी मर्जी तो बहुत है कि हमें मिलना चाहिए लेकिन हम सब अपने-अपने क्षेत्रों में लगे हैं। इस बारे में सोच भी है कि सभी इकट्ठा हों लेकिन हो नहीं पाया है। कस्तूरबा गांधी राष्ट्रीय स्मारक न्यास की उपाध्यक्ष तारा ने बताया कि इस बारे में कोशिश की जा रही है और उन्हें उम्मीद है कि साल के अंत में ऐसा कोई समागम हो पाएगा। उन्होंने कहा कि विदेश में रहने वालों को जुटा पाना संभव नहीं हो पा रहा है लेकिन भारत में रहने वाले लोग समय समय पर मिलते रहते हैं और हमलोग खुश होते हैं। करमचंद गांधी और पुतली बाई के सबसे छोटे पुत्र मोहन दास का विवाह मात्र 13 साल की उम्र में कस्तूरबा से हो गया था और उनके चार पुत्र हुए और उसके बाद यह खानदान लगातार बढ़ा है ...
