Gandhi Mandapam is a series of memorial structures built on Sardar Patel Salai, in Adyar, Chennai.[1][2][3] The first structure to be built on the premises was a memorial to Mahatma Gandhi, opened by then Chief Minister of Madras, C. Rajagopalachari on 27 January 1956. Later, four other memorials for independence activist Rettamalai Srinivasan and former chief ministers C. Rajagopalachari, K. Kamaraj and M. Bhakthavatsalam were added.[3]
Owing to its prominence, the premise is often utilized for public functions, particularly for cultural discourses and music shows.[4][5] The site also serves as a recreational park in the city.[6]
It is located nearby Anna University and IIT Madras.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
