Thapar ( 1907 to 1931)
The revolutionary movement was active in Indian politics about for thirty
years from 1905 to 1935 A.D. During these three decades most revolutionaries
kissed the gallows and faced severe physical punishment. Saheed-e-Azam Sukhdev
Thapar was one of them. Mata Ralli Devi gave him birth on 15th May, 1907 at Naughara in Ludhiana
and his father Ram Lal Thapar cradled him during his
childhood. His father Ram Lal Thapar died when he was just about to his period
of childhood. Sukhdev Thapar had to face a lot of hardships from his childhood to youthhood. He was brought up by his uncle Achait Ram Thapar
who was arrested by the British Govt. under the Marshal Law. Thus this incident put emence effect on
the psycho of Sukhdev Thapar. Meanwhile, he decided to join revolutionary
movement of Punjab during his youthhood. Sukhdev Thapar came to contact with an
other patriot of mother India, Bhagat Singh who founded Naughawan Bharat Sebha
on 13 March, 1926 in National College of Lahore presently in Pakistan. As an
active member Sukhdev joined Hindustan Socialist Republican Army with his
comrades which was founded by Sachindra Nath Sanyal. Sukhdev was deputed to spread
political consciousness among the Indian youths of that time. He not only did this
job honestly but also with great dedication and sincerity. Moreover, Simon
commission came in India to study the aspirations of Indian for the
constitutional
development. A mass of people agitated against him under the leadership of Lala Laj Pat Rai as protest against simon commission Lalaji was
brutally injured and
soon after he died. Sukhdev decided to take the avenge of Lalaji’s death. On
