My Dad, on a personal meeting with Mahatma Gandhi, and on a prayer meet for Gandhiji

*Countryin* My Dad narrates two incidents here:
1. A rally in Mumbai (Bombay) in 1942, when Dad, age 7, met Mahatma Gandhi and was given a mango by him.
2. A prayer meet, when Gandhiji was seriously ill due to fasting, to keep Gandhiji alive. The hymn sung was composed by Dad's music teacher, Mr. Pinakin Trivedi of the New Era School.
