“Amar Shaheed Bhagat Singh is an inspirational figure for every Indian, especially the youth. Fearlessness and courage were embedded in his behaviour. Before sacrificing himself for the nation, he wrote a letter to the British, asking them not to hang him and his fellow revolutionaries, but to shoot them instead. This is an example of his courage.”
