"Thank you for a fantastic visit today to such a special, beautiful and really important place. It was such a calm and beautiful visit, and I really appreciated the guidance I had in understanding its history," she said.

Earlier on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti, the British High Commissioner joined an interfaith prayer ceremony.

She said that in a "troubled world" today, Mahatma Gandhi's legacy is needed more than ever.

"A privilege to join a beautiful interfaith prayer ceremony at Rajghat this morning and watch PM @narendramodi and President Murmu @rashtrapatibhvn pay respects on Gandhiji's birth anniversary. In a troubled world, his legacy is needed now more than ever," Cameron stated in a post. (ANI)
