Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Mann on Wednesday announced the setting up of the Shaheed Bhagat Singh Chair at Guru Nanak Dev University in Amritsar.
The Shaheed Bhagat Singh Youth Awards, which had been put on hold for a while, were declared to be coming back by the chief minister. The airport in Chandigarh, which was on Wednesday given the martyr’s name, will get a 5-D statue of the freedom fighter, he claimed, thanks to the Punjab government.
When speaking at a state-level event commemorating Shaheed Bhagat Singh’s 115th birthday in his hometown of Khatkar Kalan, Mann stated, “The goal of creating the Chair is that students will perform research on the life of martyrs so that society will not forget their sacrifices and values.”
He said that Khatkar Kalan is a holy place from which everyone gets inspiration.
Deputy speaker Jai Kishan Singh Rori, cabinet minister Brahm Shankar Jimpa, Minister Anmol Gagan Mann and other leaders were present on the occasion.
Mann paid floral tributes to the freedom fighter at the museum and honoured his kin besides those of martyr Sukhdev.
