Chief minister O. Paneerselvam offered flowers and stood silent for a few minutes as he paid tribute to Mahatma Gandhi at his statue on Marina Beach this morning to mark Gandhi jayanthi. The pedestal was decorated with flowers and walkers who are here as early at 4 a.m. also paid their tributes.
Closeby, under a shamiana a group of Gandhians worked on their charkas, spinning and another group sang bhajans.
There was no sign of even a simple symbolic event at the Gandhi statue/memorial alongside the Chitrakulam in Mylapore – at least till 10 a.m. today.
