Sacrifices made by martyrs appreciated RSS KATHMANDU, Jan. 29: On the sixth day of Martyrs Week today, heartfelt tributes were paid to martyrs Dasarath Chand and Ganga Lal at Shobha Bhagwati, the place where they attained their martyrdom. At the programme organised by the Martyrs Week Main Function Committee, Hasana Devi Shrestha, the widow of martyr Ganga Lal, immediate relatives of martyr Dasarath Chand, office-bearers of Kathmandu Municipal Corporation and the general public paid floral tributes to the martyrs. Addressing the gathering, chairperson of the committee Ram Hari Sharma said the sacrifices made by the martyrs in the struggle against the autocratic Rana regime should not go in vain and youths should move ahead to resolve the problems facing the country today. Born in 1960 B.S. in Ramechhap, Dasharath Chand was shot dead on Magh 15, 1997 B.S. for engaging in an armed struggle against the Rana Government. Also born in Ramechhap in 1960 B.S. Ganga Lal Shrestha, a student of Tri-Chandra College, was executed the same day for making a speech against the Rana regime at a meeting organised by Sukraraj Shastri and for indulging in activities run by the Praja Parishad.
