The Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the three-storey 'Dandi Kutir' museum which would be a part of Mahatma Mandir— the venue for 13th PBD and 7th edition of Vibrant Gujarat.
The permanent museum housed in a dome shaped structure, traces the life and times of Mahatma Gandhi through various faces as barrister, his struggles in South Africa, return to India and successfully leading the freedom struggle. Depiction of Mahatma Gandhi's breaking the salt law after the Dandi March is a major draw.
Key concepts of Gandhian thoughts like Satyagraha, non-violence, self reliance, Gram Swaraj are
elaborately explained through a number of exhibits.
There is also an audio-visual presentation of milestone incidents of the Indian Independence Movement. The contents of the museum are expressed through a combination of traditional and contemporary media.
