Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday inaugurated the centenary celebrations of the Chauri Chaura incident in Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh.
Recalling the incident, the prime minister said, "The incident of Chauri Chaura was not limited to a police station being set on fire. The message of the incident was huge. Due to various reasons, it was treated as a minor incident, but we should see it in context. The fire was not just in the station but in the hearts of people."
