Kundapur, 31 Jan 2014: It’s indeed tragic that father of nation Mahatma Gandhi who led the freedom struggle against imperial rulers by non-violence means was shot dead by a fellow Indian.  Mahatma Gandhi fostered communal harmony among Hindu and Muslim brethren in pre-Independence and post-Independence era, said Kundapur Bar Association president, veteran advocate A B Shetty.
