A special cancellation was issued at Patna to commemorate 75th year of Martyr's Memorial erected in memory of seven young unsung brave hearts who sacrificed their lives, responding to Gandhi's clarion call ' Do or Die' during August Revolution of 1942.
The cancellation depicts the memorial and Gandhi's call "Do or Die". It was on 11th August 1942 that seven young students, in a bid to hoist the Tricolor Flag on the secretariat, were gunned down. The memorial was sculpted by Debi Prasad Roy Choudhury.
