Albanese visited Sabarmati Ashram

Earlier, the Australian prime minister visited the Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmedabad and expressed his admiration for Mahatma Gandhi. He paid his respects by removing his shoes and visiting the ‘Hriday Kunj’, a room where Gandhi lived, and observed the weaving of khadi using a spinning wheel.

The Ashram presented him with a book written by Australian author Thomas Weber about Gandhi’s salt march, a book about his life in Ahmedabad from 1915 to 1930, and a replica of the spinning wheel.

After his visit, Albanese wrote in the visitor’s book that Gandhi’s values and philosophy continue to inspire people worldwide. Later, he attended the ‘Holi Celebrations’ event hosted by the Governor of Gandhinagar, where artists from different states performed traditional dance forms.
