Mahatma Gandhi is a "real source of inspiration" for the Palestinians whose message "will continue to inspire millions" of people across the world, a senior Palestinian leader said here on Friday.
At a cycling event organised as part of the celebrations to mark the 150th birth anniversary of India's Father of the Nation, Jehad Abu Al-Asal, Governor of the historic city of Jericho, underlined the deep-rooted relations between India and Palestine and expressed "deep appreciation" for the Indian government and people for their "unwavering support" in various fields.
Emphasising on Mahatma Gandhi's non-violent approach in India's freedom struggle, Abu Al-Asal said, "Gandhi was and will be the real source of inspiration for Palestinians and all peace lovers of the world."
