AHMEDABAD: Abbottabad, which hit the headlines as the safe haven for dreaded terrorist Osama bin Laden, was earlier known more for its love of principles of non-violence preached by Mahatma Gandhi. People from Abottabad used to heap praises on Gandhi who is reported to have told that he does not deserve such adulation.
On November 8, 1938 in a public meeting at Abbottabad, Gandhi said, "I thank you for the address that you have presented to me. You have in your address expressed your gratification at having in your midst 'the greatest man on earth'. I wondered as I listened to your address as to who that gentleman could be. Certainly it could not be I."
