"Swaraj is my birthright and I shall have it" by Bal Gangadhar Tilak.
Explanation:
- Bal Gangadhar Tilak was India's explosive freedom fighter and his slogan "Swaraj is my birthright and I shall have it" is one of the pre-independence days' most powerful war cries. This simple phrase is full of context, feeling, belief, and a clear sense of action.
- Tilak was one of the founding fathers and greatest supporters of 'swaraj' meaning self-rule, the notion which became the Indian freedom movement's guiding principle. While some people were requesting for dominion status under the British rule, he ignited the fire of self-rule in India.
- Tilak approached the Indian National Congress in the 1890s but soon fell into a disagreement with its liberal-moderate approach to the self-government struggle. Tilak founded his own educational society, called the Deccan Education Society, to improve the standard of education of the young generation. He opposed the Age of Consent bill introduced in 1891, following a child bride 's death from sexual abuse. In 1916, he founded the Indian Home Rule League .
