Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar on Sunday said at the time of the country’s Partition our ancestors chose to be beheaded rather than be converted and these stories needed to be narrated to the coming generations.
He was speaking in Kurukshetra at the State-level programme organised to observe ‘Partition Horrors Remembrance Day’.
“On this day in the year 1947, the process of India’s Independence was going on, while on the other hand, the Partition of the country took place. Post-Independence literature is full of tragic stories of Partition,” said Mr. Khattar.
