"Today, on #PartitionHorrorsRemembranceDay, I pay homage to all those who lost their lives during partition and applaud the resilience as well as grit of all those who suffered during that tragic period of our history," PM Modi said in a tweet.
PM Modi had last year announced that August 14 will be observed as 'Partition Horrors Remembrance Day' to remind the nation of the sufferings and sacrifices of Indians during the partition in 1947.
"Partition's pains can never be forgotten. Millions of our sisters and brothers were displaced and many lost their lives due to mindless hate and violence. In memory of the struggles and sacrifices of our people, August 14 will be observed as Partition Horrors Remembrance Day," PM Modi had said.
