Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Wednesday accused US President Donald Trump of hurting the country's reputation by not mentioning Mahatma Gandhi in the visitor's book at the Sabarmati Ashram.
Gehlot said a person who does not have any regard for Mahatma Gandhi, whose ideology does not match with that of Gandhi was taken to the Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmedabad.
"Mahatma Gandhi's name was not mentioned in the comments, Narendra Modi's name was written. I think that it has hurt the reputation of the country," the chief minister told reporters here.
Trump visited the Sabarmati Ashram on Monday. In his message in the visitor's book, he wrote: "To my great friend Prime Minister Modi - Thank you for this wonderful visit."
