      Watch: bust of Mahatma Gandhi unveiled by EAM S Jaishankar at UN headquarters

      External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar and UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres inaugurated the bust of Gandhi at the North Lawns of the United Nations headquarters in New York.

      This marks the arrival of the Mahatma at the world body's headquarters during India's Presidency of the powerful 15-nation Security Council for the month of December.

      The Gandhi bust, a gift from India to the United Nations, is made by renowned Indian sculptor Padma Shree awardee Ram Sutar, who has also designed the 'Statue of Unity’.

      The bust is the first Gandhi sculpture installed in the UN headquarters, which proudly displays gifts and artifacts from around the world.

      The only other gift from India on display at the UN Headquarters is an 11th century black-stone statue of ‘Surya’, the Sun God, donated on July 26, 1982.
