Maganlal Gandhi was Gandhi’s nephew and his true follower since Phoenix Ashram days in South Africa. Gandhi called him “the soul of the Ashram” of which he was the architect and efficient manager. He introduced different upgraded designs of Charkha- the spinning wheel. It became the symbol of revolution which ultimately gave birth to Khadi. On his death in 1928, Gandhi remarked “I have been widowed”.
