May the
Imperialism
go to hell-Bhagat Singh
How could we determine, who was a bigger or a lesser patriot amongst
those who paid the ultimate sacrilege in the form of their lives for
independence? Coincidently few got famous and others were not
known. Revolutionary Bhagat Singh found fame by throwing bomb
in the central assembly hall on 8th April 1929.
Courage matching insanity, just consider
before throwing bomb in the central
assembly hall he had murdered
Saunders, Asst. Police Commissioner
Lahore. Even then he decided to throw
the bomb by himself and as per this
plan after throwing the bomb one had to
surrender to the police. Irrespective of
the penalty for blasting bomb, noose
was sure for murdering Saunders.
Under these situations Bhagat Singh
chose to throw the bomb then the noose
and thus immortal patriotic fervor.
For
stopping the bloody revolution in his
statement in the court he said, 'revolution
does not means an action involving
arms but it truly means change in the
governance based on cruelty. Farmers,
labourers and craftsman living in
scarcity and capitalist enjoying excessive
indulgence is surely a dangerous
situation. And in order to stop that, we
have tried to warn you while playing
with our lives.'
Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev and Rajguru
were hanged in the evening on 23
March, 1931 and their corpses were not
handed over to their relatives but were
burnt forcibly and then flown into
Sutlej even while burning.
Those three, who were hanged on 23
March, 1931 were Bhagat Singh,
Sukhdev and Shivramhari Rajguru.
One revolutionary named Virendra
believed that Sukhdev was the soul
behind the revolutionary movement in
Punjab from 1928 till 1931. It was his
planning on which Revolutionary Party
used to work, he used to work silently
and was one of those martyrs who were
working for the country without expecting
anything in return.
Sukhdev's nationalist views caught fire
with the Marshal Law in 1919 and
Jalianwala Bagh Massacre to the extent
that he formed secret party by the name
of Hindustan Democratic Party and distributed
a revolutionary paper with its
name. In 1926 he formed another group
by the name of 'Naujawan Bharat
Sabha' wherein Bhagvati Charan Vohra
was also a member.
Kartar Singh
Saraba was hanged for instigating war
against the British Government. His
martyr day was celebrated in the Bradel
Hall in Lahore. The plan to murder was
also detailed by Sukhdev as a revenge
for the murder of Lala Lajpat Rai who
was beaten blue and black while participating
in demonstration against Simon
Commision in 1928 in Lahore. The plan
was actually to kill Police Commisioner
Scot but as he was absent on that fateful
day when Saunders was killed by
Bhagat Singh and Rajguru. Sukhdev
also planned the exit for
Chandrashekhar Azad, Bhagat Singh
and Rajguru from Lahore.
Sukhdev believed in non violence in
revolutionary ideologies. Police somehow
came to know that the bomb covers
are made and sold at Ghulam
Rasool's shop and then from there
reached Sukhdev, Jai Gopal and
Kishorilal. Sukhdev ate an important
paper to safeguard information written
on it. Jai Gopal accepted to become an
informant on being tortured and on his
information many other revolutionaries
were also arrested on 15th April 1929.
The three gems who were made immortal
by being hanged on 23rd March,
1931 included, Bhagat Singh, Rajguru
and Sukhdev.
They were for sure gems
in their own forms. Bhagat Singh was a
Philosopher, Sukhdev was a organiser
and Rajguru was a sharp shooter.
Rajguru was also awarded with capital
punishment for murdering Saunders
and he too was hanged with Bhagat
Singh and Sukhdev. They called for
'May Revolution Live forever' and
'May Imperialism go to hell', a memorial
has been made by the bank of Sutlej
where on 23rd March every year a huge
fair is organised in their remembrance.
