New Delhi : The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince William and Kate Middleton, on Monday visited Gandhi Smriti and paid respects at the ‘Martyr’s Column’ — the spot where Mahatma Gandhi fell to an assassin’s bullets. The royal couple later interacted with school children there.
They went to Gandhi Smriti after paying tributes to the Unknown Soldier at the Amar Jawan Jyoti at India Gate where they laid a wreath.
Gandhi Smriti on Tees January Road is the location where Mahatma Gandhi spent the last 144 days of his life.
On Sunday, the royal couple attended a charity dinner hosted by the British High Commission in Mumbai to welcome them. The high-profile dinner was attended by the Who’s Who of Bollywood, who rolled out the red-carpet for the royal couple.
Prince William and Kate are scheduled to have lunch with Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday.
