A grand memorial & museum will be built in memory of the victims

In the inhuman tragedy of Partition in 1947, millions of people lost their homes and countless lives were sacrificed to religious fanaticism. To preserve those sacrifices and struggles, the formation of the Partition Horrors Memorial Trust has been announced. Under the guidance of Union Housing and Urban Affairs and Energy Minister Manohar Lal, the Partition Horrors Memorial Trust has been formed.

This trust will construct a grand national memorial and a state-of-the-art museum. The trust will not only commemorate the pain of that period but will also build a grand national memorial and a state-of-the-art museum to introduce the new generation to the deepest wounds inflicted on Indian soil. This memorial will display images and statues of Maryada Purushottam Ram Chandraji, Arutji Maharaj, Mata Hinglaj, Maharishi Kashyap, Guru Teg Bahadur, Guru Govind Singh, Shaheed Bhagat Singh, Shaheed Madan Lal Dhingra, and many other prominent figures of society, including Kalpana Chawla. Provisions will be made for an auditorium, a beautiful garden, living quarters, Annapurna kitchen, a Yagya/Sanskar Shala, and a meditation yoga hall.

The proposed museum will include a horror gallery and a displacement corridor, where scenes will be depicted using state-of-the-art technology. Ramesh Chand Juneja, lifelong national president of the Trust, stated that this memorial will not be merely a stone building, but a silent cry for the millions of souls who sacrificed everything for their motherland. The Trust appeals to all families and individuals who possess any objects, letters, photographs, or memorabilia from the time of Partition to come forward and donate them to the museum.

Swami Dharmdev Ji Maharaj, the settler and founding president of the new trust, and Bodh Raj Sikri, the newly appointed general secretary, stated that the trust was recently registered. Ramesh Chand Juneja, Chairman of Mankind Pharma Limited, has been appointed as the trust’s lifelong national president.
