Addressing the gathering at Gandhi Dham in a simple but impressive function organised to mark the occasion, Chaudhary impressed upon following the teachings of the Mahatma for a peaceful and violence-free society. He emphasised that the life of Mahatma Gandhi and his teachings are needed in today’s life where intolerance and violence have become a way of life.

Vikramjit Singh Chaudhary said that Punjab should feel proud that his ashes were immersed in Sutlej at Phillaur. “We should adopt a Gandhian way of life that is based on equality, freedom, justice, social and economic emancipation,” he said.
