BHAGAT
SINGH
Bhagat
Singh was born on 27 September 1907 at Banga in Lyallpur district (now
Pakistan) to Kishan Singh and Vidya Vati. From his early childhood, Bhagat
Singh was imbued with the family's spirit of patriotism. At the time of his
birth, his father Kishan Singh was in jail. When he was 12 Years old the Jallianwala
Bagh Massacre Happened , ie The British army fired to a group of unarmed
people who gathered in Jallianwala Bagh , Amritsar. After the massacre he
visited the site and Collected the soil of Jallianwala Bagh and kept in his ink
bottle. After that he started to follow Gandhi’s Non-Cooperation movement .
when Gandhi called for the withdrawal of the Non-Cooperation movement. Unhappy
with the decision, Bhagat Singh, isolated himself from Gandhi's nonviolent
action and joined the Young Revolutionary Movement. Bhagat Singh later joined the Hindustan Republican
Association, a radical group, later known as the Hindustan Socialist Republican
Association. On 30 October 1928, an all-parties procession, led by Lala Lajpat
Rai, marched towards the Lahore railway station to protest against the arrival
of the Simon Commission. Stopping the procession, police made a lathi charge at
the activists. The confrontation left Lala Lajpat Rai with severe injuries and also
led to his death. As an avenge to the death of Lala Lajpat Rai, Bhagat Singh
and his associates plotted the assassination of Scott, the Superintendent of
Police, believed to have ordered the lathi charge. But they assassinated the
Police officer J P Saunders. In response to the formulation of Defence of India
Act, the Hindustan Socialist Republican Association planned to explode a bomb
inside the assembly premises, where the ordinance was going to be passed. On
April 8 1929 Bhagat Singh and Batukeshwar Dutt threw a bomb onto the corridors
of the assembly and shouted 'Inquilab Zindabad!'( Longlive the Revolution). The bomb was not meant to kill or injure
anyone and therefore it was thrown away from the crowded place. Following the
blasts both Bhagat Singh and Batukeshwar Dutt courted arrest. The British authority, while interrogating them, came to
know about their involvement in the murder of J. P. Saunders. Bhagat Singh,
Rajguru, and Sukhdev were charged with the murder. Singh admitted to the murder
and made statements
against the British rule during the trial.
While in jail, Bhagat Singh found that the authorities were following a dual policy in treating the prisoners. The criminals of foreign origin were treated better than Indian political prisoners. As a protest, he along with some fellow prisoners declared to "go on hunger strike". The strike continued for over a month and finally the British had to accept before their conditions.
Bhagat Singh along with other revolutionaries found responsible for the Assembly bombing and murder of Saunders. On March 23, 1931, Bhagat Singh was hanged in Lahore with his fellow comrades Rajguru and Sukhdev. Singh was cremated at Hussainiwala on banks of Sutlej river.

SUKHDEV THAPAR
Born on 15th May,
1907 in Ludhiana, Punjab, Sukhdev Thapar played
a prominent part in India’s struggle for freedom. He was the son of Sh. Ram Lal
and Smt. Ralli Devi. He was a revolutionary and made use of revolutionary
tactics to teach lessons to the British government officials. He was a
popular member of HSRA (Hindustan Socialist Republican Association). In
order to make nationalism more popular among the masses, he and a few other
revolutionaries launched an organization named Naujawan Bharat Sabha in 1926.
His nationalist activities
impressed the younger generation of India. When he was imprisoned in 1929 and
went on a hunger strike, a large number of youth came forward and joined the
freedom struggle. However, the most prominent incident of his life would be the
shooting of J.P Saunders, who was the Assistant Superintendent of Police. had been actively involved in the freedom movement of
India until his execution. He had made a special connection with the youth of
India. After his death, he began to be considered a martyr and to avenge his
death a majority of young Indians joined the freedom movement.
SHIVRAM
RAJGURU
Rajguru was
born at Khed near Pune. He was a colleague of Bhagat Singh and Sukhdev, and
took part in the murder of a British police officer, J.P. Saunders, at Lahore)
in 1928. The reasoning behind the murder was to revenge the death of
veteran leader Lala Lajpat Rai who died due to injuries sustained during
excessive police beating. All three were convicted of the crime and hanged on
March 23, 1931. They were cremated at Hussainiwala at the banks of
the Sutlej river in Ferozepur district of Punjab.
Rajguru was a
learned scholar in various Indian scriptures. He was a sharp and accurate
shooter and was regarded as the gunman of HSRA (Hindustan Socialist Republican Army).
He wanted India to be freed from British rule by
any means necessary. He believed that ferocity against oppression was far more
effective against British rule than the gentle ways of Mahatma Gandhi.
Most of the People at that time believing that Gandhi has got
a chance for Saving these revolutionaries from the execution. But he doesn’t take
such a movement.
Bhagath Singh in your Point of view throwing the bomb
in the assembly may be a right movement. But it resulted an ultimate loss to
our nation. Country lost the real fighters .
For which nation you gave
your life, that nation divided into three due to the political interest of
Indian National Congress and Muslim League. They sold our nation to imperialist.
I am damn sure if You are
still live in that time (means at the time of Independence Declaration) the
Partition will never Happened , you revolutionaries will not allow this act .
Your Execution is a huge Loss for us.
