Bhagat Singh: A Revolutionary Hero of India

Bhagat Singh was born on September 27, 1907 in Lyallpur, western Punjab, India (now in Pakistan). He was a prominent leader of the Hindustan Socialist Republican Association (HSRA), a radical group that fought for India's independence from British colonial rule. He was involved in several acts of violence and protest against the British government, such as throwing a bomb in the Central Legislative Assembly, assassinating a police officer, and going on a hunger strike in jail. He was hanged on March 23, 1931 in Lahore (now in Pakistan) along with his comrades Rajguru and Sukhdev. He is widely regarded as a martyr and a national hero in India.

Bhagat Singh was influenced by various political and social movements, such as anarchism, socialism, Marxism, and atheism. He was also inspired by the writings and actions of revolutionaries from India and abroad, such as Kartar Singh Sarabha, Chandra Shekhar Azad, Ram Prasad Bismil, Bhagwati Charan Vohra, Vladimir Lenin, Joseph Stalin, and Leon Trotsky. He wrote several essays and pamphlets on his views and ideals, such as Why I Am an Atheist, The Philosophy of Bomb, and The Problem of Untouchability. He also edited and contributed to various journals and newspapers, such as Kirti, The People, and The Revolutionary.

Bhagat Singh is remembered and celebrated for his courage, sacrifice, and vision for a free and egalitarian India. His life and legacy have inspired generations of Indians from different walks of life. His birthday is observed as Shaheed Diwas (Martyrs' Day) in India. His portrait hangs in the Indian Parliament along with other freedom fighters. His slogans such as "Inquilab Zindabad" (Long Live the Revolution) and "Sarfaroshi Ki Tamanna" (The Desire for Sacrifice) are still popular among the masses. His writings and speeches are widely read and quoted by scholars and activists. His story has been depicted in various books, films, songs, and plays.

Bhagat Singh's Revolutionary Activities

Bhagat Singh joined the Hindustan Republican Association (HRA), a radical group that aimed to overthrow British rule by armed revolution, at a young age and became involved in various revolutionary activities. He was influenced by the Ghadar Party, a group of Indian immigrants in North America who planned to wage an armed rebellion against the British in India. He also participated in the Non-Cooperation Movement led by Mahatma Gandhi, but became disillusioned with Gandhi's decision to call off the movement after the violent incident at Chauri Chaura in 1922.

In 1926, Bhagat Singh founded the Naujawan Bharat Sabha, a youth organization that aimed to mobilize the masses for national liberation. He also joined the Kirti Kisan Party, a peasant movement that fought for the rights of farmers. He wrote and distributed pamphlets and posters to spread revolutionary ideas and slogans among the people. He also organized public meetings and demonstrations to protest against British policies and laws.

In 1928, Bhagat Singh and his associates planned to assassinate James Scott, the senior police superintendent who was responsible for ordering a lathi charge on Lala Lajpat Rai during a protest against the Simon Commission, a British committee appointed to review the constitutional reforms in India. Lala Lajpat Rai died of a heart attack after being injured by the police. However, Bhagat Singh and his associate Shivaram Rajguru mistakenly killed John Saunders, a junior officer who resembled Scott. They also shot dead Channan Singh, an Indian head constable who tried to chase them. They escaped from Lahore with the help of their comrades and went into hiding.

In 1929, Bhagat Singh and another associate, Batukeshwar Dutt, threw two bombs and leaflets inside the Central Legislative Assembly in Delhi to protest against the Defence of India Act, which gave more power to the British government to suppress dissent and arrest suspects without trial. The bombs were not meant to kill anyone, but to create noise and attract attention. Bhagat Singh and Dutt voluntarily surrendered after shouting "Inquilab Zindabad" (Long Live the Revolution) and were arrested.

Bhagat Singh's Trial and Execution

Bhagat Singh and his co-accused were tried in a special tribunal set up by the British government. They faced charges of murder, conspiracy, and waging war against the king. They used the trial as a platform to propagate their revolutionary ideology and expose the injustice of British rule. They also went on a hunger strike in jail to demand better treatment for political prisoners. Their hunger strike lasted for 63 days and drew nationwide attention and sympathy.

Bhagat Singh was convicted and sentenced to death along with Rajguru and Sukhdev. His appeal for clemency was rejected by the British authorities. He was hanged on March 23, 1931 in Lahore Central Jail along with his comrades. His body was secretly cremated by the police on the banks of the Sutlej river. His execution sparked massive protests and strikes across India. He became a symbol of courage and sacrifice for millions of Indians who were inspired by his revolutionary spirit.
