Gandhi was here

Mahatma Gandhi was in Bangalore in 1927 for three months. He held a prayer meeting at this place, so says a memorial. It is located in the Hotel Ashoka premises. This hotel was built in the 1970's, so when Gandhi was here, this place probably hosted a Guest House.

(I visited Hotel Ashoka to attend Bangalore Literature Festival, and noticed this memorial. Picture credit belongs to the author)

Notice the name plate in the background
