History

The Bhagat Singh Memorial Foundation was founded in the Pakistani city of Lahore by the activist and lawyer Imtiaz Rashid Qureshi with the aim of proving the Indian revolutionary Bhagat Singh to be innocent.

The Lahore High Court has granted a request from Qureshi for the case of Singh to be re-opened to prove his innocence. The case was due to be heard in February 2016.[1][2]
