What people say

Patricia Palacín Lafuente
"Free and open every day from 6:30 am to 6:00 pm. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, also known as Mahatma Gandhi, was assassinated on 30th January 1948 and the following day, his body was cremated at a spot near the Yamuna. Raj Ghat marks the exact location where Gandhiji was consigned to flames and his last rites were performed. A simple memorial was built at this place in keeping with Gandhiji’s philosophy and practice of living a modest life."
"Rajghat, located on the banks of the Yamuna River in Delhi, is a significant memorial and a symbol of reverence for Mahatma Gandhi, the Father of the Nation."
