Bhagat Singh: Life and legend
It was, to quote King James Version, “[a] time to be born, and a time to die; [….] A time to love, and a time […] of war […]” It was a time to dream, a time to struggle – dream for liberation, struggle for liberation.
The setting was this colonized subcontinent – undivided India, colonized by the British brutes. The tortured land had heroes – dreaming for emancipation of millions, organizing people defying the colonizers’ whips, and making supreme sacrifice, but keeping the scarlet flame of liberation bright and brighter with blood the Shaheeds, Martyrs, shed. Bhagat Singh was a central character of those brave hearts.

Indian revolutionary (1907–1931)
This article is about the Indian socialist revolutionary. For the Indian-American civil rights activist, see Bhagat Singh Thind.
Bhagat Singh (27 September 1907[2][a] – 23 March 1931) was an Indian anti-colonial revolutionary[3] who participated in the mistaken murder of a junior British police officer in December 1928[4] in what was to be retaliation for the death of an Indian nationalist.[5] He later took part in a largely symbolic bombing of the Central Legislative Assembly in Delhi and a hunger strike in jail, which—on the back of sympathetic coverage in Indian-owned newspapers—turned him into a household name in the Punjab region, and after his execution at age 23 into a martyr and folk hero in Northern India.[6] Borrowing ideas from Bolshevism and anarchism,[7] the charismatic Bhagat Singh[8] electrified a growing militancy in India in the 1930s and prompted urgent introspection within the Indian National Congress's nonviolent but eventual
