Bapu’s journey had paved the way for the merger of Jammu and Kashmir
Father of the Nation Mahatma Gandhi came to Jammu and Kashmir on August 1, 1947 to meet the last Dogra ruler Maharaja Hari Singh a few days before independence.
This was Mahatma Gandhi’s only visit to Jammu and Kashmir. This was his informal visit, but Maharaja Hari Singh is believed to have decided to merge Jammu and Kashmir with India after this visit.
Retired Major General Govardhan Singh Jamwal, witness of Mahatma Gandhi’s visit, told that when Mahatma Gandhi was in Kashmir, he was in Kashmir to give lieutenant’s paper at the same time.
Used to live with a relative in the camp itself. When it was learned that Mahatma Gandhi had come to Kashmir, he wished to meet him.
It was not possible to meet directly, but he definitely got a chance to listen. Those moments became memorable moments of my life.
