"Action expresses priorities." --Gandhi

In the Footsteps of Gandhi

As they say, the more things change, the more they remain the same. And this adage will be proven true by a British woman who will walk on the path Mahatma Gandhi took 80 years ago. Eight decades ago, Gandhi embarked on a Salt March demanding to break free from British colonialism through a nonviolent movement. Starting today, an inspired Jill Beckingham will retrace his route in the same Gandhian spirit of "right over might". Walking from India's Ahmedabad to Dandi, she plans to raise funds for six NGOs, three each in Mumbai and Gujarat.
