Mani Bhavan Gandhi Sangrahalaya

This guide to Mani Bhavan Gandhi Sangrahalaya in Mumbai centers on the modest house where Mohandas Gandhi lived for fifteen years, the room where he first took up the spinning wheel in 1917, and the campaigns he launched from here, including the 1919 satyagraha against the Rowlatt Act and the Bombay bonfires of foreign cloth. It follows Gandhi's household in the early hours of January 4, 1932, when police arrived at the door asking for the man asleep on the roof terrace. His wife Kasturba and a circle of followers were still gathered around him as he read the warrant in silence.
