Review of BMCOE, Nagpur

Amazing and surreal place. Gandhi built the place ...

Amazing and surreal place. Gandhi built the place himself using local artisans, sustainable building materials and at a cost of Rs.100 in 1936. The place is well marked, and clear boards to describe each and every area. The first meeting gor Quit India movement was initiated in 1942 right here.There is also an on-site spinning and weaving area where one can buy handloom fabrics made right here(which was also a big point emphasised by Gandhiji to end reliance on imported garments). A book store and a school being run on Gandhian principles (Nai Talim) completes the campus. Nearest railway station is Sevagram. A must visit for all !
