Answer:

bal gangadhar tilak

Explanation:

Bal Gangadhar Tilak died on August 1, 1920. His last rites were performed at Girgaum Chowpatty along the seashore.

Maharashtra government has decided to rename Mumbai's Girgaum Chowpatty area, where freedom fighter Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak was cremated, as 'Swaraj Bhoomi'.

"Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has accepted a proposal in this regard by the Mumbai Municipal Corporation," a senior government official said.

The BJP had last year demanded that the little garden along Girgaum Chowpatty where Tilak was cremated should be named as 'Swaraj Bhoomi', a demand that Lokmanya Tilak Gaurav Samiti, an independent outfit, has been raising for long.
