Answer:

Bhagat Singh

A Shared Revolutionary Legacy

Between India and Pakistan

It was indeed heartening to know that Pakistan called Bhagat Singh a shared hero of both the countries. Zahid Saeed,

the Chief Secretary of Punjab government proclaimed that ‘Bhagat Singh was the Independence movement hero of

both India and Pakistan. The people of the country have the right to know about his (Singh) and his comrades’ great

struggle to get freedom from the British Raj.’1

I am not surprised by the decision as I have personally experienced the

love and veneration for Bhagat Singh and his ideals during my few visits to Lahore. However, it may be one of the

rare acknowledgements from a high government official of Pakistan. Let us talk about his vision, which makes him

acceptable to both the countries simultaneously, a vision which he envisaged for an independent India and which

remains relevant for both the countries even now. It was not a narrow jingoistic vision but an internationalist one,

where Bhagat Singh spoke for the oppressed and colonized societies beyond South Asia.

Bhagat Singh is valorized for his martyrdom, and rightly so, but in the ensuing enthusiasm most of us forget, or

consciously ignore his contributions as an intellectual and a thinker. He not only sacrificed his life like many did

before him and also after him, but he also had an idea of independent India. During the past few years, it has almost

become a routine to appropriate Bhagat Singh as a nationalist icon, while not much is talked about his nationalist

vision.

Bhagat Singh is probably the only one from amongst our freedom struggle heroes, who can be celebrated by

both-India and Pakistan. It is possible because he stood for a non-sectarian and egalitarian world. He never espoused

any divisive idea in his short life. And it is possible to make sense of his politics because he left behind a substantial

written legacy to engage with. It is rare to find a young man in his early twenties conceiving an idea of universal

brotherhood and articulating it in a detailed article. Maybe he was the only one among our freedom struggle heroes

who had this vision?

Bhagat Singh was not just a patriot, with a passionate commitment to his nation, he was a visionary, with a

pluralist and egalitarian perception of independent India. He visualized an India where 98 per cent will rule instead of

elite 2 percent.2

His azaadi was not limited to the left of the British, instead, he desired azaadi from poverty,

azaadi from untouchability, azaadi from communal strife and azaadi from any other discrimination/exploitation. Just

twenty days before his martyrdom on 3 March 1931 Bhagat Singh sent out an explicit message to the youth saying:

. . . the struggle in India would continue so long as a handful of exploiters go on exploiting the labour of the common people

for their own ends. It matters little whether these exploiters are purely British capitalists, or British and Indians in alliance,

or even purely Indians.

Bhagat Singh was committed to Inquilab or revolution but it was not merely a political revolution he aimed at.

He wanted a social revolution to break the age-old discriminatory practices.This Inquilab Zindabad was not merely an

emotional war cry for the revolutionaries but had a lofty ideal which was explained by the HSRA thus:

The Revolution will ring the death knell of capitalism and class distinction and privileges . . . It will give birth to a new state –
