Chandigarh, Dec 30: The NSS Units of Mehr Chand Mahajan DAV College for Women observed Bal Veer Diwas to commemorate the unparalleled courage and supreme sacrifice of Sahibzada Zorawar Singh and Sahibzada Fateh Singh, whose martyrdom stands as an enduring symbol of bravery, resilience and moral fortitude.
As part of the observance, the NSS volunteers carried out extensive awareness drives within their homes, neighbourhoods and surrounding localities. Through meaningful interactions with children, the volunteers highlighted the significance of Bal Veer Diwas and the timeless values it upholds.
