Shaheed Diwas: Bhagwant Mann said the real tribute to the martyrs would be to fulfil their dreams.
Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann on Wednesday said his government will make strenuous efforts for getting martyr status for Bhagat Singh, Rajguru and Sukhdev as he paid tributes to the legendary freedom fighters at Khatkar Kalan.
Khatkar Kalan is the ancestral village of Bhagat Singh.
Shaheed Diwas or Martyrs' Day is observed every year on March 23, the day Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev Thapar and Shivaram Rajguru were hanged by the British in the Lahore Central Jail in 1931.
In a brief interaction with the media on the occasion, Mr Mann said Bhagat Singh, who laid down his life in the prime of his youth, was never in doubt that the nation would not be free from the clutches of foreign rulers.
