Books worth around Rs 2.5 lakh, written on and by Mahatma Gandhi, were sold in a week-long exhibition-cum-sale organised by Bombay Sarvodaya Mandal in Mumbai to commemorate death anniversary of the Father of the Nation.

"Feedback of website visitors makes us believe that after reading Gandhi books, many people have decided to follow the path of truth and non-violence and are striving to sustain morality by practising philosophy of Gandhi which is the need of the hour," TRK Somaiya, of the Sarvodaya Mandal, said.
