Gandhi Donations

* Re your reports of Oct. 23 and 24: It is a disgrace that the name of Mahatma Gandhi is linked with the cloudy operations of Yogesh Gandhi. Mahatma Gandhi would have never agreed to lend his name for awarding peace prizes to heads of the governments presiding over the biggest war machines in history, nor to individuals with alleged ties to organized crime. The amounts given would have gone a long way in India or any other Third World country to resolve ethnic conflicts, fight disease, eradicate illiteracy, provide drinking water, improve sanitation and eliminate hunger.
