In a message, the Governor said that the sacrifices of the martyrs would continue to inspire the generations as they adopted non violent and peaceful means to give went to their feelings for self-rule. Those were the times when the people seethed with discontent but could do nothing due to lack of proper leadership which, however, emerged eventually and steered the State to a new era of self governance and dignity. ‘This led to peace, progress and development of the State with people’s active participation in decision making’, he added.
General Sinha recalled the sacrifices of the martyrs and said that by launching a peaceful movement, they were finding ways for giving ex-pression to the agonies of the people.
