Chandrashekhar Azad : A Pioneer of Bharatiya Independence

 

Chandrashekhar Azad : One of the greatest freedom fighters

Chandrashekhar Azad

Chandrashekhar Azad was a great Indian freedom fighter. His fierce patriotism and courage inspired others of his generation to enter freedom struggle. He was the mentor of Bhagat Singh, another great freedom fighter, and along with Bhagat Singh he is considered as one of the greatest revolutionaries that India has produced.

Chandrashekhar Azad was a Bharatiya revolutionary from Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh. He believed that his Dharma was to fight for the Nation. He said a soldier never relinquishes his weapon. He was involved in the Kakori Train Robbery (1926), in the attempt to blow up the Viceroy’s train (1926), and in the shooting of Saunders at Lahore (1928) to avenge the killing of Lala Lajpat Rai. He formed the ‘Hindustan Socialist Republican Association’.  He was an ideal for revolutionaries such as Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, Batukeshwar Dutt and Rajguru.

Chandrashekhar Azad enters in freedom struggle

Chandrashekhar Azad was born on July 23,1906 in Badarka village of Unnao district in Uttar Pradesh. His parents were Pandit Sitaram Tiwari and Jagarani Devi. Pandit Sitaram Tiwari was serving in erstwhile estate of Alirajpur (situated in present day Madhya Pradesh) and Chandrashekhar Azad’s childhood was spent in the village Bhabra. On the insistence of his mother Jagrani Devi, Chandrashekhar Azad went to Kashi Vidyapeeth, Benaras for studying Sanskrit.

Chandrashekhar Azad was deeply troubled by the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre in Amritsar in 1919. In 1921, when Mahatma Gandhi launched Non-Cooperation movement, he actively participated in revolutionary activities. He received his first punishment at the age of fifteen. He was caught while indulging in revolutionary activities. When the magistrate asked him his name, he said “Azad” (meaning free). He was sentenced to fifteen lashes. With each stroke of the whip the young Chandrasekhar shouted “Bharat Mata ki Jai !”. From then on Chandrashekhar assumed the title of Azad and came to known as Chandrashekhar Azad. He vowed that he would never be arrested by the British police and would die as free man.

The Rani ofJhansi is a household name in India, herstory the subject

of primary school readers and comic books. And yet, few Westerners other than those with a serious interest in India are aware that a little more than a century ago a young woman, the widow of the

maharaja ofJhansi, fought for her state in Central India and died valorously in battle against soldiers of the East India Company.

While working on a book on the Indian National Army I learned of

the women's unit called the Rani of Jhansi Regiment. This unit, named

by Subhas Chandra Bose, aroused my interest and prompted me to tum

from World War II and the struggle for independence waged by the

INA back to the rebellion of 1857 and in particular to look at the role

played by this extraordinary woman, Rani Lakshmibai ofJhansi.

A story lives through its narrators and listeners. British sources provide one side of the Rani's story, but the image of this woman has largely

been shaped by the celebration of her spirit and valor in poetry, ballad,

folktale, and drama throughout India. This popular, indigenous tradition is an important source for understanding the Rani's life and especially her legend. Her epic struggle against a superior power has made

her a compelling legend and gained her a kind of immortality in popular Indian culture. The layerings of her image inform the collective

memory of the nation; her story continues to be told by the poets of

Bundelkhand. Her history as recorded by the English is therefore not

enough.
