Langar Houz: The Gandhi Digital Museum has a lot to offer with interactive display exhibits with QR codes that throw up a video, a gigantic wall full of rare photos of the Mahatma with others taking one back to the freedom struggle. The museum, brainchild of Birad Rajaram Yajnik started off well but in the past few years has fallen out of favour.

• People only remember him on October 2 and January 30

• Since the museum started in 2013, close to 50,000 students visited it but since the last two years hardly anyone made it to the museum

Mehek, a teacher of Sunshine High School, who completed a course in Gandhian Studies says, "We took students from our school a few years back but the management is not interested. There is hardly anything we can do. A trip can do wonders as one can see, visualize and feel Gandhi at the museum as it has interactive features."
