Restoration of Vinoba-Mira Cottage at Gandhi Ashram

The Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, is undergoing a big restoration project.

One important part of this project is fixing up the Vinoba-Mira Kutir, a small cottage where two important people, Acharya Vinoba Bhave and Mira Behn, lived with Mahatma Gandhi a long time ago.

While working on the cottage, workers found some old steps that were buried under the ground.

They also discovered that the cottage was originally built on a small platform, which had gotten covered with sand over time.

The trust in charge of the ashram is now working to restore the cottage to how it looked originally.

They are also making sure that rainwater doesn't damage the cottage by installing special pipes.

This project is part of a larger plan to restore the entire ashram, which includes many other buildings that were important during Gandhi's time.
