A. READING COMPREHENSION
Read the passage given below and answer the questions-
Bhagat Singh, the great revolutionary and martyr, was only 23 when in 1931 he was hanged in the Lahore jail for having thrown a bomb in the legislative Assembly Hall in Delhi on April 8th 1929. This was the culmination of a life devoted to the great task of first making India free from the British rule and then building India into a strong nation. Bhagat Singh dreamt of an India where there would be respect for every religion and where all Indians would get the basic necessities of life.
Bhagat Singh was born in 1907 in a well-to-do Sikh family of Punjab full of love for the country. As a child, his idle was his uncle Ajit Singh, who was a great freedom fighter.
Two incidents played a major role in shaping Bhagat Singh's life. In Jallianwala Bagh in Amritsar, a peaceful gathering of unarmed people was subjected to discriminate fighting at the orders of General Dyer. Bhagat Singh ran away from school to visit the sight. He was greatly moved by the bullet marks in the walls of the Jallianwala Bagh. He brought back with him some blood-soaked mud in a little bottle to remind him of British cruelty.
The second incident was Lala Lajpat Rai's death in 1928. Lala Lajpat Rai was also Bhagat Singh's ideal. He was leading a protest march when he was beaten up with lathis, and he died soon after. Bhagat Singh felt highly agitated and he wanted to raise a strong protest. The idea of so many Englishmen getting killed delighted his friend Chandrashekhar Azad. But Bhagat Singh said he did not wanted to kill anybody, he only wanted to make the British rulers hear. Bhagat Singh and his friend did not try to run away after throwing the bomb. They were arrested and put to trial. In a statement that Bhagat Singh made during his trial, he said, "the bomb was necessary to awaken England from her dreams. Our sole purpose was to make the deaf hear, and give a timely warning....".
