Here are the Untold Stories of Women Who Dedicated their Lives to the Freedom Movement
Our history pages brim with inspiring stories of their fight for an independent India. However, the role of women in the Indian Independence Movement has tragically been marginalised, and often, overlooked. Save for a few names like the Rani Lakshmibai of Jhansi, Sarojini Naidu, Annie Besant, and Aruna Asaf Ali, which do make to our textbooks; and there is a fair bit about women picketing; Ram Mohan Roy and the abolishment of regressive practices like 'sati', the names of numerous women who sacrificed their lives for a free India are woefully forgotten.
Names like Matangini Hazra who while hoisting the flag and leading a protest in Calcutta was shot three times but carried on screaming 'Vande Mataram'; Tara Rani from Bihar who in a procession to Siwan Police Station with her husband didn't even flinch when he was shot and instead marched on with resolution; Ashalata Sen, a poet who was so inspired by the Non-Cooperation Movement that she built a weaving machine in Dhaka and participated in the Dandi March.
Today, we pay homage to these brave spirits and thank them for their contributions — no less than their male counterparts — in fighting for the independent India that we know today.
Kanaklata Barua
The story of Kanaklata Barua, a 17-year-old Assamese girl who was shot dead with the tricolour clenched in her hands, is often sidelined amid the more frequently-recounted stories of India’s Freedom Struggle. On September 20, 1942, at the peak of the Quit India Movement, Barua led a protest group, the ‘Mukti Bahini’ to the Gohpur Police Station, in a bid to unfurl the tricolour.
Barua had joined the Mukti Bahini a mere two days before the incident and despite being one of its youngest members, she insisted on leading the protest and after a lot of convincing, was allowed. History records that even when she fell to the British bullets, she didn’t let the tricolour fall to the ground.
After years of being limited to Gohpur, the internet and history enthusiasts have resurrected her story of heroism to the world and today, several schools, a statue in Gohpur and now, a New Coast Guard ship — ICGS Kanaklata Barua — is named in her honour.
Often called India’s first Bengali Muslim feminist, a more apt title associated with this enigma would be ‘Reformer in a colonised India’. In 1916, she founded a path-paving organisation — the Muslim Women's Association — which fought for women's education and employment. Her contributions to an Independent India came through her need to educate the ‘lowest’ within their masses — women, especially Muslim women — so they could be a part of the greater fight — as rightful citizens of the country.
