Mahatma Gandhi's bust unveiled in Nebraska's State Capitol
New Indian ExpressNEW YORK: A bust of Mahatma Gandhi was unveiled in the State Capitol building in Nebraska, the first time a statue of the iconic Indian leader has been installed inside any such premise in the US Pacific Northwest states that come under the jurisdiction of the Indian Consulate in Seattle. Governor Jim Pillen unveiled the bust of Gandhi on Friday at his office in the iconic Nebraska State Capitol premises in Lincoln. This marks the first installation of Gandhi's bust in any State Capitol premise in the nine states that come under the consular jurisdiction of the Indian Consulate in Seattle. It noted that the installation of Gandhi's statue, a generous gift from the Government of India through the newly opened Consulate in Seattle, at the Nebraska State Capitol in Lincoln, "signifies a vision of long-term partnerships with Nebraska, serving as a powerful reminder of Mahatma Gandhi's enduring legacy and the universal values he championed."
