The ties between UAE-India are on a rise like never before, and this friendship is getting commemorated in a really cool way in the UAE.

A statue of Mahatma Gandhi is going to get installed at the India Social and Cultural Centre in Abu Dhabi.

This is the first time that a Gandhi statue is being shipped to a Gulf country so it is pretty historical 

The statue took six months to make and it looks pretty amazing.

There is going to be an event to celebrate the installation ceremony at ISC on Thursday.
