The statue in Davis’ Central Park of Mohandas K. Gandhi, The Father of the nation India and a Icon for world's non violence and peace, who inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world has been toppled, defaced and dethroned.

The 6-foot-tall, 950-pound bronze likeness appeared to have been sawed off at the ankles and half its face was severed and missing.

The statue was found after a night when wind and heavy rainfall knocked out power in much of downtown Davis. “City staff discovered vandalism to the statue of Gandhi in Central Park this morning while surveying storm damage,”

The Gandhi statue in Central Park stood for four years and three months before it was found toppled and broken Wednesday morning.

We peace lovers across the oldest democracy in the world demand President Joe Biden and California Governor Gavin Newsom to restore the statue and investigate this heinous act and punish those responsible immediately. This is a shameful act  and immediate intervention is appreciated.
