Three students—Brij Mohan, Subhash Chandra and Gulshan Handa were killed in GGM Science College premises whereas another student leader, Gurcharan Singh was killed on October 18, 1966, in Kanak Mandi, Jammu, when a students’ procession was marching through the streets of Jammu.

Paying tributes to the student martyrs, Anshu Sharma, President MAM College said, entire Jammu province is indebted to these martyr students who sacrificed their lives for the future of Jammu.
“Since 1947 people of Jammu region are giving sacrifices to live a dignified life but unfortunately the successive governments have meted out a step motherly treatment with nationalist people of Jammu,” he said adding that in a democratic set up of J&K people of Jammu region have been discriminated by the ruling elites in one or the other.
JJSF Vice President, Atul Sudan said, political parties claiming to be champions of Jammu cause too sacrificed Jammu interests for the lust of power.
