Apart from fighting for India’s independence, one of Gandhi’s pet projects was Nai Taleem–a new way of looking at education. This time Alternatiview features Anand Niketan, a school started by Gandhi himself in 1940. Although it was shut down in 1975, Anand Niketan was reopened in 2005 and has been functioning successfully since then carrying on with Gandhi’s idea of learning through craft.
