Speech on national leaders who sacrificed their life for making india free

Answer 1

The path to India’s independence was not an easy task. Several people sacrificed their lives for the country. Freedom fighters including Bhagat Singh, Mangal Pandey, Chandra Shekhar Azad, Rajguru and Sukhdev played a crucial role in the country’s independence. They fought against the British rule and made the country ‘a free bird’ again after so many years of slavery. One of the youngest freedom fighters of India, Bhagat Singh was associated with organisations including Naujawan Bharat Sabha, Hindustan Socialist Republican Association and Kirti Kisan Party. He threw two bombs in the Legislative Assembly chamber in Delhi.

Shivaram Hari Rajguru came to Varanasi at very young age where he learned Sanskrit and read Hindu religious scriptures. He was involved in British officer JP Saunders’ murder. He was regarded as the gunman of Bhagat Singh’s party.

India is a land of ‘Goddesses’ and people here treat this country as their own mother. Daughters of this country played a significant role during the freedom struggle. From Rani Lakshmi Bai to Aruna Asaf Ali, the women freedom fighters gave their lives for the independence of the country. They fought fearlessly against the British rule and their contribution in India’s independence cannot be ignored. Here’s a list of such women freedom fighters. Born as Manikarnika, she changed her name to Lakshmi Bai in honour of Goddess Lakshmi. At the age of 14, she married Gangadhar Rao, the King of Jhansi, in 1834. She bravely fought against the British regime and kept them at bay till she breathed her last. She died at very young age of 22 when the British troops besieged Jhansi.

Chandra Shekhar Azad played a vital role in the India’s freedom struggle. He was associated with Hindustan Republican Party. He was involved in the Kakori Train Robbery in 1925.

Mangal Pandey was a sepoy in the 34th Bengal Native Infantry regiment of East India Company. He sparked off the first war of Indian Independence or the ‘Sepoy Mutiny’ in 1857.
