Synopsis
An Australian couple has donated a bust of Mahatma Gandhi to the Indian community centre in Rowville, Melbourne, after a 400-kilogram bronze statue was stolen in February. Disturbed by the theft and damage of the original statue, Pamela Denny and Greg Staff chose to gift their own cherished piece, which they had preserved with care for over 40 years. SBS Hindi speaks with the couple, who say the news of the vandalism was heartbreaking and that they hope their gift helps restore a sense of unity.
