War veterans bats for WWI memorial

Chandigarh, Dec 8 (UNI) War veterans on Saturday came together on the Military Literature Festival (MLF) platform to demand for a dedicated war memorial to commemorate the sacrifices of all the World War-I heroes.
The hitherto unrecognised contribution of valiant Indians, particularly Punjabis, needed to be aggressively propagated, they said at a panel discussion on 'Contribution of India Towards the First World War’, moderated by noted media personality Barkha Dutt.
The panelists consisted of Squadron Leader Rana Chhina, Prof David Omissi, Prof Anju Suri, besides Dr Santanu Das and Lt Gen N S Brar, who engaged in a stimulating discussion that underlined the social and emotional turbulence suffered by soldiers and families during the 1914-1918 War.
