If a question is asked today’s generation to name any revolutionary martyr, then they will say Sardar Bhagat Singh as the first answer because they do not know anyone else’s name. They will neither know nor understand the terrible atrocities of the British on the Indians. Terrible period of 600-700 years, first thousands of Hindus were converted to Muslims by Muslims and thousands of Hindu girls were forcibly converted to Muslims, then came the era of the British. He converted thousands of tribals to Christianity and directly married Hindu girls and created a caste “Anglo Indian”. They forcibly looted gold, silver, diamonds, and pearls from all over India. It had become common to lathi charge and put in jail on the slightest issue. Now boys wear British dress. Don’t know the meaning of Hindi words and girls wear frocks. Who reads history, which is written by the British?
Bhagat Singh was born on 28 September 1907 in Banga village of Lyallpur district of Punjab in a Punjabi family whose whole family was against the British. Father Sardar Kishan Singh Sandhu’s life was spent in jail, whatever to do to free Mother India from the British, this was the idea of elder uncle Ajit Singh who was deported from Punjab. Younger uncle Khadag Singh was tortured so much in jail that he passed away. Bhagat Singh had Gayatri Mantra by heart at the age of 3. After the primary examination, he was admitted to an independent school from Lahore and then admitted to Parmanand College. Bhagat Singh liked literature, history and politics, so he used to give strong speeches. The people of the house wanted to get married, so they ran away to Delhi and Arjun got engaged in the newspaper. After meeting Ganesh Shankar Vidyarthi in 1924, he started working with him. When the National School was formed, he was made the Principal when he was only 18 years old. He formed ‘Naujawan Bharat Sena’ in which youths were taken to fight against the British. Made a member by writing with his blood by tearing his finger, the boy now went to Amritsar and became the editor of Akal Patra. Had gone to a meeting in 1926, and someone threw a bomb but the police put Bhagat Singh in jail. Ramprasad Bismil was hanged for the Kakori incident. In 1928, he went around the world awakening everyone. When the Simon Commission came, Lajpat Rai was protested by the police so much that he died, then Bhagat Singh and Azad etc. went and killed the sanders and ran away to Kolkata and kept teaching the bomb makers. To tell the truth, to the Central Assembly, Bhagat Singh and his comrades threw papers here and there and fired bullets far and wide because their aim was not to kill anyone. Gave the slogan “Inquilab Zindabad”, and raised the voice of Bharat Mata ki Jai. The British sentenced Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev Singh and Rajguru to death by adding old things like stealing government money, Sanders murder etc. He was to be hanged on March 24, 1931, in the morning, but knowing that hundreds would come to save him, the British hanged him on the noose on the evening of March 23, 1931, and burnt him at night. A good patriot was hanged by the British on false allegations.
