JAMMU, June 1: All J&K Sadguru Kabir Sabha observed the 48th death anniversary of Shaheed Bhagat Amarnath who sacrificed his life for the cause of down trodden people of the state.

Bhushan Lal Dogra, vice chairman Schedule Caste Advisory Board was the chief guest and Prof Gharu Ram Bhagat, ex-MLA was the guest of honour on the occasion.
FC Bhagat president of the Kabir Sabha while speaking on the occasion said that Shaheed Amarnath devoted himself for social cause, justice and implementation of constitutional rights to the Dalit Samaj of J&K state. He was very much committed and determined to sacrifice his life for the victimized, discriminated, deprived, socially exploited and neglected downtrodden masses.
Bhagat said history reveals that during 1970 there was great resentment among the Dalit Samaj against the deliberate denial of reservations rights by the state government despite of such reservations rights implemented throughout the country. Ultimately Shaheed Amarnath sat on hunger strike and even sacrificed his life for the cause of Dalit Samaj adding that due to his efforts the reservations rights were implemented in our state. |
