Mahatma’s ashes stolen, photo defaced in MP’s Rewa
As India celebrated the 150th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, unidentified miscreants stole a portion of his ashes kept at Bapu Bhawan in Madhya Pradesh’s Rewa, police said on Thursday.
The miscreants also wrote “anti-national” on the picture of the Mahatma that was put up on a hoarding-like structure inside the Bhawan.
Rewa district Congress chief Gurmeet Singh spotted the mischief when he reached Laxman Bagh, which houses the Bapu Bhawan, to pay tributes. He lodged a formal complaint with the police and Congress workers staged a protest seeking identification and action of the miscreants.
