Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan paid homage to the immortal freedom fighters of the year 1857, Raja Shankar Shah-Raghunath Shah, on their martyrdom day.
Chief Minister Chouhan paid floral tributes by garlanding their picture in the auditorium at his residence.
Raja Shankar Shah and Raghunath Shah inspired the soldiers in the Jabalpur region to participate in the revolution in the freedom struggle of 1857. Together with their revolutionary comrades and the soldiers of the 52nd Regiment, the father and son planned the revolution. But the traitor passed this information to the British. Thirteen people, including Raja and his son and followers, were arrested. The search found a poem written by Raja Shankar Shah along with the documents of Kranti Sangathan.
