Shaheedon ka samman..............!!!

Hats off to the brave policemen and soldiers who laid down their lives to save innocent men, women and children taken hostage by the shameless terrorists. Our politicians will hardly care for these great martyrs after a few weeks. They will announce cash compensation which may not reach the families of these martyrs. Through your columns, I earnestly appeal to the media to set up a martyrs’ fund which should be headed by a responsible individual, such as Ms Kiran Bedi, former President Abdul Kalam, and Mr Julio Ribeiro. Donations should be called for from the entire nation. From this fund, generous amounts should be sent to the family of the martyrs and be used for the education of their children. We salute our men in uniform.
