Speaking at the Jallianwala Bagh Centenary Commemoration organised at the House of Lords in London last night, imminent entrepreneur, philanthropist and film presenter and the founder of the International Punjab forum and patron of Jallianwala Bagh Centenary Commemoration Committee Dr Raju Chadha said, “This horrid incident has left an irreversible scar in the minds of successive generations of Indians and it’s imperative that a formal unconditional apology be tendered by the British Government for the atrocities committed back then. This alone would heal our wounds.”
Dr. Chadha led a delegation to the House of Lords in London comprising of imminent Punjabis & achievers from across varied fields. Prominent amongst those who were present included Lord Raj Loomba, Lord Meghnad Desai, Indian High Commissioner to UK Ruchi Ghanshyam, Balbir Singh Kakkar, Manjit Singh Gk, Vikramjit Singh Sawhney, Bhupinder Singh Chadha, and filmmaker Rahul Mittra.
