Kaithal, Oct 27 (UNI) Gujarat Governor Acharya Devvrat laid the foundation stone for the Shaheed Udham Singh Chowk at Dera Kishne Wali Khui Gobindpura on Tuesday. The Governor also released the book "Udham Singh's Journey from Sunam to London," written by Sardar Gajjan Singh Govindpura.
Addressing the event, organized by progressive farmer Gajjan Singh, the Governor stated that it is society's responsibility to pass on the history of the country's brave martyrs to future generations. He said that Gajjan Singh had donated his land to build the square so that Shaheed Udham Singh's patriotism and dedication to the nation would always be remembered.
The Governor said that the Jallianwala Bagh massacre had shaken the entire nation. Martyr Udham Singh waited a long time to avenge this incident and in 1940, shot and killed Michael O'Dwyer, the then Lieutenant Governor of Punjab, at Caxton Hall in London. He held O'Dwyer responsible for the Jallianwala Bagh massacre.
The Governor said that the lives of such revolutionaries awaken the spirit of patriotism and sacrifice among the youth.
The Governor organised a school for farmers. In the school, he explained in detail the difference between organic farming and natural farming. He said that due to the greater need of cow dung manure and vermicompost in organic farming, the cost and hard work of the farmers may increase.
In the programme, the Governor was honoured by presenting him a statue of martyr Udham Singh. The Governor honoured Mukesh Rani, the director of Kaithali Dairy, for natural farming, as well as for providing pure milk and ghee to the people and dozens of people who have done excellent work in various fields.
