On the occsion of Martyr’s Day, an impressive function was organized by Khadi Village Industries Board at Anantnag today. The function was chaired by District officer of the Board, Mr. Muzafar Abdul Nasir and attended by senior officers, prominent citizens and people in good numbers.
Today is also a matter of great pride that the grateful nation is paying homage to the father of the nation and also celebrating centenary of Satyagrah, a powerful and patent path followed by Mahatama Gandhi to face his adversaries and opponents.
The Day also attains greater importance in view of it coinciding with Youmi-Ashoora when Hazreth Imam Hussain (RA) and his valiant followers sacrificed their lives for upholding the fundamental values of truth, righteousness, dignity and liberty.
The speakers threw light on the significance of the day and maintained that it calls upon us all to follow the path of truth, honesty and other human values. They said Mahatma Gandhi who laid down his life this day in 1948 always strived for these values and struggled for dignity and freedom from the shackles of foreign yoke.
The Mahatama also stressed for using home spun and home made fabric (khadi) to improve the socio-economic condition of the millions of the countrymen.
On the occasion, a two-minute silence was observed to pay homage to the Mahatama Gandhi and also the Martyr’s of Karbala and others. |
