Bhagat Singh was a soldier in India's freedom struggle. During his graduation at National College which was founded by the great reformist and freedom fighter Lala Lajpat Rai, Bhagat drew huge inspiration. He escaped the fate of early marriage by running away from home and joined Noujawan Bharat Sabha, an youth organization. Here he met other revolutionaries like Chandra Shekhar Azad and B. K. Dutt. Bhagat took up the cause of spreading political awareness and circulated handouts & newspapers with the help of other revolutionaries. These were circulated in all different languages to reach the masses and used to be a punishable offence at the time. Meanwhile resistance against the British was on rise and political parties in India didn't hesitate to display the same. For this reason, British Government appointed a commission in 1928 under Sir John Simon to make a report on political activities. No Indian member was included in this.

He decided to take revenge and kill Scott but due to some identity misunderstanding killed a junior officer instead. Chandra Shekhar Azad, Rajguru and Sukhdev were all partners in the act.
