Singapore President S R Nathan has inaugurated the Mahatma Gandhi Memorial building following the completion of restoration work. Nathan lighted an oil lamp to reopen the building dedicated to the Father of the Nation Mahatma Gandhi.  The Hindi Society of Singapore raised S$1 million for the restoration work which was undertaken in 2009.

The building had first opened its doors on April 24, 1953 and has a library with books in Hindi, English, Tamil and Chinese on the life and works of Gandhi. Mahatma Gandhi Memorial Hall is the Family Service Centre of the Singapore Indian Development Association (SINDA) in Little India. The hall had a statue of Mahatma Gandhi which was there by Malcolm Macdonald, the Commissioner General of the United Kingdom.

It also houses the office of the Hindi Society, and has classrooms as well as a multi-purpose function hall.
