Speaking on the occasion, Rajiv Mahajan Vice Chairman of Association said that Udham Singh was a real hero and an inspiration to thousands of revolutionaries who fought for the country’s freedom and today’s generation should study the freedom movement.
Speakers while throwing light on the life history of Udham Singh, said he perturbed by the massacre of Jallianwala Bagh took oath to eliminate Gen Diar at any cost and went to London to execute his decision, unlike Kashmiri youth, who instigated by a few separatists and Pakistani agencies were bent upon killing their own countrymen.
