232  w   Lohgarh : The World’s Largest Fort


                          Dhota Tanda (Jammu):

                          Banda Singh Bahadur’s body was cremated here.
                              Amingarh, Kunjpura, Kapuri, Thaska, Buria (in Haryana),
                          Saharanpur (in UP), Bilaspur (in Himanchal), Ghuram, Rupar, Rahon,
                          Kalanaur, Batala (in Punjab), Raipur-Rasulpur and Baloh (in Kashmir)
                          are the places where a large number of Sikhs sacrificed their lives.
                          Suitable pillars commorating their sacrifices should be set up in these
                          places.
                              There is a trend to establish a Gurdwara in the memory of an event
                          and there are thousands and thousands of Gurdwaras all over the
                          world. Instead suitable minars/towers, museums, statues, platforms
                          and domes etc. should be set up so that future generations may know
                          their history.
