जाट कौम के जाबांज शहीदों को आज शिद्दत से याद करने का वक्त है। फांसी के फंदे पर झूलने से पहले शहीदे-आज़म भगत सिंह ने विचारो की जिस क्रांति की अलख जगाई थी, वह आज भी झझकोरती है।

शहीद शिरोमणि को शत शत नमन।

[DrRajpalSingh]

अपनी आज़ादी को हम हरगिज़ मिटा सकते नहीं ।
सर कटा सकते हैं लेकिन सर झुका सकते नहीं ।।
दम निकले इस देश की खातिर बस इतना अरमान है
,एक बार इस राह में मरना सौ जन्मों के समान है।
देख के वीरों की क़ुरबानी अपना दिल भी बोला,
मेरा रंग दे बसंती चोला।।
• राष्ट्र, शहीद-ए-आजम भगत सिंह, राजगुरू और सुखदेव को उनके 84वें शहीद दिवस पर आज श्रद्धांजलि अर्पित कर रहा है।
