BJP National President and Union Minister J.P. Nadda also honoured the martyrs, stating, "I pay my heartfelt tribute to the immortal freedom fighters, brave sons of Mother India, Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, and Rajguru.

Union Minister Piyush Goyal highlighted the fear that these revolutionaries instilled in the British rulers.
