Azadi ka amrit mahotsav:
Unsung Heroes of freedom
struggle
Radha Chauhan
This August 15, India will celebrate 74 years of independence from the British Raj and
also remember the 200-year old struggle for freedom of our countrymen. The most
famous freedom fighters are undoubtedly Mahatama Gandhi, Netaji Subhas Chandra
Bose, Bhagat Singh, Mangal Pandey and so on, but there are also others who
contributed to the independence movement but their names faded into the darkness.
There were many freedom fighters who looked into the eye of the tyrannical British
rulers and dared to raise slogans of an independent India. Some are celebrated all
across the world among the Indian community while there are others whose names
despite being worthy of all the glory that there is, remain anonymous to the masses
today.
