Mandi, November 24

Family of freedom fighter Bhai Hirda Ram has urged the district administration to ensure proper upkeep of his statue at Indira market in Mandi town.

Shamsher Singh, grandson of freedom fighter Bhai Hirda Ram, said: “The statue of Bhai Hirda Ram has been installed on the top floor of Indira market and is in a shambles. There is a need to ensure proper upkeep of the statue. I urge the district administration to beautify the surrounding of the statue and fence the area with railing.”

“Besides, Bhai Hirda Ram Jayanti event, celebrated every year on November 28, should be declared as government event in Mandi,” he added. —TNS
