Ambala, January 23
Haryana Home Minister Anil Vij paid tributes to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose at Subhas Park in Ambala Cantonment on the occasion of Parakram Diwas on Sunday.
Vij said, “Except for its own loved ones, the Congress sidelined all the freedom fighters who participated in the freedom struggle and sacrificed their lives. They never got credit for their contribution. The BJP will give due credit and respect to each and every freedom fighter.”
Spread over 17 acres, the park is dedicated to Subhas Chandra Bose. Constructed at a cost of Rs 29 crore, the park was inaugurated last year. Now, there are plans to display the history and life story of Netaji at the park.
Anil Vij said, “During the tenure of the Congress, some influential people tried to grab this land. But we got the land freed and developed it as one of the most beautiful parks of the state. We have been celebrating Netaji’s birthday for the past several years here. Thousands of people come here every day and take inspiration from him.”
Meanwhile, Ambala City MLA Aseem Goel paid tributes to Netaji at ward number-5 in Ambala City. —
