New Delhi, Feb 24 (SocialNews.XYZ) Twitterati criticised US President Donald Trump for not mentioning Mahatma Gandhi in the visitor book of Sabarmati Ashram and instead praising Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Trump also called him a "great friend" (PM Modi) and called his tour a "wonderful visit". "To my great friend Prime Minister Modi - Thank you for this wonderful visit," wrote Trump and signed the message.
It was also signed by First Lady Melania Trump. This act drew a lot of eyeballs on social media as President Trump left a message in the visitors book without any mention of Mahatma Gandhi.
A user wrote, "Clearly u, @realDonaldTrump, have no idea about the Sabarmati Ashram, the great #MahatmaGandhi and the visitors book in the Ashram. No mention of Mahatma Gandhi by President Trump in his comments in the visitors book at Sabarmati ashram #GoBackTrump."
Another wrote, "This Is D Insult Of #MahatmaGandhi AOn His 150th Birth Anniversary Year...Mr @narendramodi Must Apologize To Nation On Behalf Of @realDonaldTrump @POTUS and Mr @realDonaldTrump himself should also apologize unconditionally for his ignorant behavior towards our #fatherofthenation."
A post read, "Respected @realDonaldTrump @POTUS...You need to write your experience about Your visit to Sabarmati Ashram.... You can say thanks to @PMOIndia @narendramodi later... don't insult #MahatmaGandhi ji...it's an insult to the nation."
"@realDonaldTrump, it's really unfortunate if you visited Sabarmati Ashram and didn't speak a word about #MahatmaGandhi ji. May be your friend from India might have insisted you to do so !" a user remarked.
Tweeple were quick to take screenshots of what the then US President Barack Obama had written when he visited Rajghat on January 25, 2015: "What Dr Martin Luther King Jr said then remains true today: The spirit of Gandhi is very much alive today. And it remains a great gift to the world. May we always live in his spirit of love and peace - among all people and nations."
