Bengaluru: CM HD Kumaraswamy said that the government is planning to set up Gandhi Bhavans in all 30 districts of the state.

On the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti celebrations at Gandhi Bhavan, CM said that land for the Bhavans had already been identified in 16 districts, and the procedures will be completed in all the remaining districts by this month.
