Punjab to propose naming Halwara Airport after martyr Kartar Singh Sarabha
State transport minister Amarinder Singh Raja Warring said the Punjab government will soon send a proposal to the Centre for naming the Halwara International Airport after Shaheed Kartar Singh Sarabha as a tribute to the legendary revolutionary who attained martyrdom at the age of 19.
He said this while presiding over a state-level function organised on Tuesday to commemorate the 106th martyrdom day of Shaheed Kartar Singh Sarabha in his ancestral village.
On the proposal of Congress leader Captain Sandeep Singh Sandhu, the minister said Dakha’s new bus stand would also be named after the martyr and the proposal in this regard will be taken up in the state cabinet meeting.
