Heritage stories LIVE FOREVER...........KOMAGATA MARU is.......... our HERITAGE.

Our community today has achieved some of the highest ranks in Canada. it would not have been possible if the sacrifice was NOT made by our forefathers who were on KOMAGATA MARU and those who fought the legal fight on Vancouver soil in 1914.

KOMAGATA MARU HERITAGE FOUNDATION is proud of the 376 individuals and they deserve better recognition from Our Community, Our Governments in Canada and India.

Can you think of anything that has been done to memorize the struggle and injustice that took place 91 years ego ?

Exactly .... NOTHING
