On October 30, 2026 a life-size statue of Mahatma Gandhi was unveiled at Peace Park in Bismarck, North Dakota, marking the first such monument in the state and a milestone in India‑North Dakota friendship. The ceremony was attended by Consul General Prakash Gupta, First Lady Kjersti Armstrong and Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring, among other local dignitaries and members of the Indian‑American community.
The statue was installed with assistance from the Consulate General of India in Seattle and support from the Indian‑American community, and it coincides with the month marking Gandhi’s 157th birth anniversary, which is observed on October 2 as the International Day of Non‑Violence.
