Pt. Prem Nath Dogra, An Honesty personified
One of the leader of Indian subcontinent who do not had personal interest or the family but every step in the in the duty of nation. Honesty , as policy in every sphere of life whether personal, professional or politicial. Even the house that Pandit ji possessed was given to Trust. Seven times Member of legislative assembly lived a simple and pious life ,left with nothing in his name. This gives us enthusiasm to live the life of honesty
Aptly called "Sher e Duggar" as he screwed up separarist and anti national elements, he led the citizens of his time with full commitment ,indomitable attitude utmost efficiency, enthusiasm at every stages of life. It is impossible to have the person who is loved across parties in political space ,a soul who is adored across all religions and caste, remembered by everyone on every geographical location Let' s take the pride in giving the status this unsung deserves ,Iqbal rightly said
