Nobility in Mind:Righteousness
When I touch the commemorative coins of 100 Rupees, 50 Rupees and 1 Rupee, I reminded of a unique experience, which I had few years back that reveals how a single leader can inspire a large population. I happened to meet, in Delhi, the grand-daughter of Mahatma Gandhiji, Mrs Sumitra Kulkarni. She narrated to me an incident about her grandfather, which she personally witnessed.
