Chhina also appealed UK government that it should also now take an initiative to tender an apology for the 1919 Jallianwala Bagh tragedy in which hundreds of innocent persons were butchered mercilessly on the Baisakhi day near Golden Temple for taking part in the freedom struggle movement. &#8220;I am hopeful that such a gesture would not come from UK too\u2019\u2019, said he.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amritsar, April 13 (Dharmender Singh Rataul) &#8211;
