The NAPM had called people to observe Land Rights Day at the same place and time. The sacrifices made by Shaheed Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, and Rajguru on this day is celebrated across the country as Shaheed Diwas. People’s Movements have celebrated this day as a reclaiming of community rights, remembering those sacrificed their lives protecting mother earth’s rights and pledging to stop the corporate loot of the land, water, forests and minerals.
