A retired civil servant, Musaddilal Gupta escapes modern India for about an hour a week "as a tribute to him," he says. A few steps from where Gandhi died, Gupta spins his own thread — as the Mahatma taught. ¶ "When this becomes cloth and when I wear it, it's a feeling of joy, to produce something yourself," Gupta says. "His principles are so strong! You may or may not accept it." ¶ "But the day will come when this palace of cards will fall," he says, "and Gandhian principles will remain."

Gandhi is quoted as stating that “Palestine belongs to the Arabs in the same sense that England belongs to the English or France to the French” in 1938, ten years before the creation of the state of Israel. According to Indian professor of contemporary Middle East, P. R. Kumaraswamy[,] critics perceive New Delhi’s growing ties with Israel “as an abandonment of Gandhian values” and the 1938 statement has been used [to] reiterate India’s continued support for the Palestinians.
