Mahatma Gandhi then addressed the meeting sitting on a chair. He said that India today was faced with such a situation that he must speak to them and ask their help. He was pleased that Mr. Zakariah Hashmi and Babu Bindeshwari Prasad had given up their practice at the bar and he congratulated them on the step they had taken. He felt that it was the English-educated gentlemen that were the cause of their present sufferings.

  • ONCE IT WAS KNOWN AS WHITE HOUSE OF GONDA
  • The western part of the kothi belongs to Chanda Babu. Which in no way is part of Babu Bindeshwari Prasad Kothi. Babu Bindeshwari Prasad Kothi part 2 is not a part of this . It belongs to Babu Bankey Behari Lal . WHITE HOUSE was only called by its residents and not by any other gonda locals

  • Why not correct the polygon in the main building also. And show the Chanda BAbu's house separately .
  • It seems some families/people are still jealous from babu sahib’s family …. Let them ….They may borned to be....... They may be frustrated… Gaurav I don’t know who are you but good work. I & my father still respect them. Lots of memories Respected Krishna Chandra Hairat, Lakshmi Dada, Jagdish Babu, Chanda Babu. Now, third generation.
  • Dear Anand ji. Regards,We too respect them, but showing wrong information is wrong. Still I say the entire kothi is not of Bindeshwari Babu and one part belongs to Chanda baba. As regarding being jealous We are not jealous, but when my family house was shown as a part of the Kothi part2, I raised my objection. I am sure even you would if I mark your house as mine or my family's. Why would anyone be jealous and frustrated. Only a large Kothi ( presently) does not show the status. We are happy in what we have .. probably you dont know the other stories of jealous and frustration ..
  • Well anand ji Abhi why are you quite. Where are all the comments on jeolousy and frustation. Can anyone from the kothi sit face to face and talk about Jeolousy and frustation. Sab saamne aa jayega.
  • Asheesh Prakash (Bantu bhaya), I do not know Mr Anand ji Advocate, but sure let’s sit together & have cup of tea, Dekhtey hai kya aur kiska Jealousy and frustration samne ata hai… when r u planning…. Challenge accepted…. Anand Ji, If you are still practicing in Gonda, You know better what happens about this 100 Bar Council election at District Court Gonda. Who was supporting & opposing Aur Kya hua oppose karne walon ka. If you remember about Ward member election (Radha Kund was 16 ward) of 1998. These are just 2 instances.... lots more.... Gaurav Chandra
  • All this talk of jealousy and enmity is so unfortunate. I recall being told by my mother, mama and mausi that the outer wall of Kothi no. 1 ( facing Radha Kund) was designed in a curve by Nana( Babu Bindeshwari Prasad) so that the second Kothi, which belonged to his brother and was slightly behind would not be overshadowed. From that level of love and care, we have degenerated the relationship between the families to such a sorry mess. The common wall with access from the joint roof into both the houses is ample proof. We, as kids, were blissfully unaware of the distinctions now being made. And yes Chanda mama is sill mama for me. All this leaves such an undesirable taste in the mouth. This debate shouldn't have been started in the first place, but yes, Asheesh, you are factually correct, for whateve it(that correctness) is worth.
