Iconic revolutionary Udham Singh's kin wants job of a peon

New Delhi: When nationalism and patriotism are dominating the national discourse, the great grandson of iconic revolutionary Udham Singh is struggling to secure the job of a peon in Punjab government which had been promised to him by former Chief Minister Amarinder Singh.

The promise of Congress government did not materialise as the party was out of power for 10 years. The repeated pleas of Jagga Singh, who is great grandson of Udham Singh’s elder sister Aas Kaur, to the Shiromani Akali Dal and BJP government did not yield any result.

Braving the chill here, 30-year-old Singh has shifted his protests to Jantar Mantar in the national capital hoping to get his voice heard in the power corridors.
