On December 26, 2021, Anek Dhara, a public policy platform, organised a webinar on Gandhi and Indian Nationalism. The speakers discussed how the use of religious symbols, non-violence, and tolerance of diverse faiths were integral to Indian Nationalism then and the issues concerning nationalism in practice today.
Sucheta Mahajan, professor, Centre for Historical Studies JNU spoke on “Way to Communal Harmony: Gandhiji’s Solitary Walk in Noakhali”, and Tushar Gandhi, founder and President, Mahatma Gandhi Foundation spoke on “Secularism and Nationalism in the Times of Gandhi”.
