Martyr’s Day or Shaheed Diwas is celebrated every year in India, to honour and pay respect to those who laid their life I service of the nation, mainly to those who bled and lost their lives for the country's freedom. This special day is celebrated twice every year, the first time on January 30 and once again on March 23. Both these days hold incredible significance as on January 30, Father of the nation, Mahatama Gandhi was assassinated and on March 23, bhagat Singh, Shivaram Rajguru and Sukhdev Thapar were hanged to death by the Britishers.

It is believed that Bhagat Singh and Mahatama Gandhi, had different ideologies although they had the same goal of India’s independence in mind. After 72 years of Independence India still celebrates Shaheed Diwas as people want to remember the leaders to fought tooth and nail so the upcoming generations could live freely in a sovereign country. Here are some Martyr's Day quotes.
