What to say.. I heard his name first time. What he did for our country is not forgettable. But how many of us (young people) know this great man?? 2-5% of us?
I think if we can honor our Cricketers for winning 25 years ago then Its a shame that we don't even know about the person who protected our country lifelong.
I really feel that we should recommend a chapter (Sam Bhadur) in our primary education textbooks. So that,every young Indian know about him, if even 1 child from 100 schools from India get inspired by such a chapter we can get many such heroes. And India can be more powerful.
Can any one suggest how to appeal this to our education ministry? Cos our education ministry site is having a blank page with image and nothing more.... :(
