Badal announces to set up world class memorial in Doaba to showcase rich legacy of freedom fighters, patriots and martyrs of Punjab
Sukhbir urges educational institutions to conduct visits of students to these memorials to apprise them of glorious past
Kup Rohira (Sangrur)-BB,November 29: Punjab Chief Minister Mr. Parkash Singh Badal today announced to set up a world class memorial in Doaba region at a cost of Rs.300-400 crore to showcase the rich legacy of numerous freedom fighters, patriots and martyrs of Punjab, who made significant contribution in the Indian freedom struggle. Addressing a mammoth gathering here after dedicating the prestigious \'Wadda Ghallughara Martyrs Memorial\' to the humanity and Khalsa Panth after the Ardas ceremony performed by the Jathedar of Sri Akal Takhat Sahib Giani Gurbachan Singh amidst chanting of \'Bole So Nihal Sat Sri Akal\' to pay a befitting tribute to the 30000 Sikhs who attained martyrdom in a fierce battle with the army of over a lakh soldiers led by the Mughal emperor Ahmed Shah Abdali in Kup Rohira on February 5, 1762. Mr. Badal said that state-of-the-art memorial would be erected somewhere in Doaba on the pattern of Virasat-e-Khalsa recently dedicated to the mankind at Sri Anandpur Sahib which had been conceptualized to depict vividly the history of Sikhism spanning over 550 years. He said that the final decision for the selection of site, design and pattern for the upcoming memorial would be cleared in next Cabinet meeting slated to be held at Chandigarh on December 3. Mr. Badal lauded the role of Punjabis for making more than 80% sacrifices in the national freedom struggle despite the fact they merely constituted two-and-a-half percent of country\'s population. He said that Punjab had played a unique and unparalleled role in the freedom movement. He said: \"Punjabis have a prominent place and we are proud of their brave and unique contributions. Mr. Badal said that the rich legacy of unprecedented sacrifices made by martyrs would act as a light house in the form of the upcoming memorial to guide the destiny of our future generations. In his address the Deputy Chief Minister and SAD President Mr. Sukhbir Singh Badal said that these world class memorials were the outcome of the great visionary approach of the Chief Minister who meticulously planned to erect these memorials to perpetuate the rich legacy of the supreme sacrifices of the martyrs and heroes who laid down their lives for the Sikh Panth. He said it was our bounden duty to showcase our glorious cultural heritage for our younger generations and these concerted efforts were a humble step to achieve this goal. He added that the nations who forget their martyrs or heroes were bound to vanish with the passage of time. Mr. Sukhbir Singh Badal appealed the educational institutions to conduct regular visits of students at these memorials to keep them abreast of our glorious past abound in self-sacrifices to instill the spirit of nationalism and patriotism amongst them. In his address, Member Rajya Sabha and SAD Secretary General Mr. Sukhdev Singh Dhindsa said that Mr. Badal had proved to be a true follower of great Sikh Ruler Maharaja Ranjit Singh who too had also made an humble effort in preserving the glorious and rich legacy of Sikhism and Khalsa Panth through these memorials in the Punjab for the generations to come. He urged Mr. Badal to acquire 3-4 acres of land for the construction of road to provide a direct access to the people from Gurdwara Sri Wadda Ghallughara Sahib to the memorial.
