It’s a people to people contact thanks to the support of Jam Saheb. “The event is a progression of film on the Polish children who are now in their 90s and featured in my film are being invited to share their stories of their childhood. Most of the families from Soviet-dominated areas were sent to labour camps from where they were loaded in trucks and sent to Turkmenistan, Iran, Afghanistan and India.

It’s beyond the standard of economic or political relations.” He added “We expect high level rank of ministers from Poland to participate in this event but names will be finalized in the second half of the month.” Jamnagar district collector Ravi Shankar said “The Polish survivors will refresh their memories at Balachadi and will also visit few places in Jamnagar during their four-day stay.”.
