History of Shaheed Diwas
Bhagat Singh was an Indianย socialist revolutionaryย whose two acts of dramatic violence against the British. Sukhdev Thapar (15 May 1907 โ 23 March 1931) and Shivaram Hari Rajguruย (24 August 1908ย โ 23 March 1931) was also an Indian revolutionary and a member of the Hindustan Socialist Republican Association.
In December 1928, Bhagat Singh and an associate, Shivaram Rajguru, fatally shot a 21-year-old British police officer, John Saunders, in Lahore, British India, mistaking Saunders, who was still on probation, for the British police superintendent, James Scott, whom they had intended to assassinate. They believed Scott was responsible for the death of a popular Indian nationalist leaderย Lala Lajpat Raiย as a result of having ordered aย lathi charge in which Rai was injured, and, two weeks thereafter, died of a heart attack.
Later, in order to avenge the death, they performed another daring task and on 8 April 1929, they threw bombs over the Central Legislative Assembly. As they kept saying โInquillab Zindabad,โ Singh, Rajguru and Sukhdev were arrested and were charged with murder. In 1931, they were hanged on 23 March in the Lahore Jail. Their cremation ceremony was performed at the banks of the Sutlej River. National Martyrs Memorialย is located atย Hussainiwala, where Sukhdev, along with Bhagat Singh and Rajguru, were cremated.
B. R. Ambedkar, writing in an editorial in his newspaperย Janata, blamed the British government for its decision to go ahead with the executions, despite strong popular support for the revolutionaries.
