Free Education For Children of India's Martyrs

The Issue

Martyrs' families are losing their sole bread earner in order to save our lives. We can lead safe, secure lives because of them.

If Indian government leaders, or any Indian is sleeping peacefully then the credit goes only to these soldiers.

It is the Indian government's foremost duty to help the children of India's martyrs graduate, i.e. provide them free of cost education.

Their sacrifice is priceless. These kids have no one to support their dreams, they've lost their fathers so that India could be safe.

Providing a one time compensation is not enough, rather it is insulting their sacrifice. These children deserve constant support in order to give wings to their dreams.

The Decision Makers

Responded
I have received this petition from Change.org on behalf of the children of Uri martyrs wherein they have requested that their children should be provided free education. As of now the petition has been signed by over 70,000 people. Our soldiers have made supreme sacrifices in their call of duty to protect our country. Taking care of the cost of educating their children will be a small part of our gratitude toward them. I have written to the Minister for HRD requesting him to consider the petition favourably. I would like you to remain updated about the work done by the Ministry. Please follow us on twitter @ministrywcd and @manekagandhibjp page. Please also follow us on our Facebook page facebook.com/manekagandhiofficial & facebook.com/ministrywcd. Thank you, Maneka Sanjay Gandhi Union Minister For Women and Child Development
