Thank you for sharing this insightful glimpse into Gandhi Darshan!** The detailed description of the exhibits, especially the Dandi March boat and the Gun Carriage, adds a powerful historical context to the museum’s significance. I’m especially intrigued by the 274-panel photo gallery and the international stamps. It’s heartening to see such a rich tribute to the life and legacy of Mahatma Gandhi. Definitely adding this to my must-visit list when in Delhi!
