Congress candidate Manish Tewari has been a former Union Minister and a spokesperson for the Congress party. Earlier in the month, Manish Tewari while hitting out at PM Modi said he doubted if Prime Minister knew about freedom fighter Bhagat Singh as the PM never turned up to pay respects to the martyr.
Tewari who is up against Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) leader and sitting MP Prem Singh Chandumajra, said, "I really doubt if PM Modi has any idea about 'Shaheed-e-Azam' Bhagat Singh as he never turned up to pay respects to the legendary hero here," Tewari was speaking in a public meeting.
He announced that the first thing he would do after getting elected would be to move a resolution in Parliament to officially declare Bhagat Singh as 'Shaheed-e-Azam'. "His sacrifice in India's freedom struggle remains unmatched, unparalleled and officially unacknowledged, as we have failed to recognise it on record," Tewari added.
"Our great martyrs like Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev and Rajguru have not got their due," he claimed, adding we, at least, owe a respectable acknowledgment and gratitude towards our great martyrs without whose sacrifices we would not have been here today," Manish Tewari said.
