Ram Naik lite 24 hours eternal flame – Amar Jyoti – at Jalianwala Baug. The Jyoti is mounted on a five feet high platform on the same pattern as Amar Jawan Jyoti at India Gate, New Delhi. It is dedicated to the struggle for Independence and it burns for 24 hours and symbolically provides light to those who perished on 13 April 1919 when General R C H Dyre opened massive fire on a peaceful gathering protesting against the British Rule.
