Remembering Freedom Fighter Shaheed Udham Singh who waited for 21 years to avenge the killing of hundreds of people and had finally killed Dyer in London.

Remember the massacre of Jalianwalla Bagh in Amritsar, Punjab where according to official 379 people were killed and at least 1,200 more wounded in the firing ordered by General Reginald Edward Harry Dyer.

Freedom fighter Shaheed Udham Singh had waited for 21 years to avenge the killing of hundreds of people and had finally killed Dyer in London.

Commemorating July 31 as his martyrdom day, when Singh was hanged in London's Pentonville prison, Sikh community in Indore paid tribute to the freedom fighter on Saturday.

To pay tribute, community members gathered at Shaheed Udham Singh ji Chowk, i.e. Choithram Sabji Mandi square. Community members under the aegis of Shri Guru Singh Sabha, Indore offered floral wreath, sang devotional songs and recalled the bravery of the freedom fighter.

Sabha president Manjit Singh Bhatia and general secretary Jasbir Singh Gandhi recalled the life lessons from the life of the freedom fighter. Other members including Inderjit Singh Hora, Devender Singh Gandhi, Jagjit Singh Tuteja, Sach Saluja, and Baldev Singh Chaw also shared the saga of Singh and paid homage to him.

Last few words of Shaheed Udham Singh

'I do not care about sentence of death. It means nothing at all. I do not care about dying or anything. I do not worry about it at all. I am dying for a purpose. I am not afraid to die. I am proud to die, to have to free my native land and I hope that when I am gone, I hope that in my place will come thousands of my countrymen to drive you dirty dogs out; to free my country. Your conduct, your conduct - I am talking about the British government. I have nothing against the English people at all. I have more English friends living in England than I have in India. I have great sympathy with the workers of England. I am against the Imperialist Government.'
