Book Description

Preface

On 10 May 1857 there was a spark of revolution in India against the British rule. It was crushed because it was not organised. Thirty years later, organisations were formed to fight against the British imperialism in India. India got independence in 1947, exactly ninety years later and after lot of sacrifices by Indians. While Mahatma Gandhi fought the British Empire with his noble method of Ahimsa or non-violence, there were revolutionaries who gave their lives for the cause of independence, fighting the British Empire. We should not forget the sacrifice of these revolutionaries who accepted death whole-heartedly without any grudge against anybody and set an example for others.

This book is about the famous young revolutionaries who went to the gallows laughing and singing. Nothing could deter them from their committed task; neither money nor the tearful affection of their family members. They proved their mettle and left no stone unturned in bringing freedom to India. I hope that the present generation will learn from the sacrifices of these handful youngsters.

My father, famous writer and freedom fighter, Late P. D. Tandon helped and guided me in writing this book. He was a journalist-cum-author of repute. His name appears on forty-nine books written in five Indian languages. Besides, all leading newspapers of the country have published his articles.
