About 300 Gandhians from different parts of the country and organisations are participating in the Summit.
Speaking at the event, the President said that Kumbh is the biggest congregation of humanity of the world and this provides for a great platform to spread the messages of Cleanliness and eradication of untouchability as was practised by Mahatma Gandhi.
He said that this would be true homage to the Father of the Nation.
