The soil collected from all villages and blocks across the nation will be utilized to create an Amrit Vatika (Garden of Nectar) in memory of the bravehearts who sacrificed their lives for the country. A memorial dedicated to these valiant individuals will be established near Kartavyapath, serving as a lasting tribute to their sacrifice and dedication. |
