15 August - Sardar Ajit Singh death anniversary


Sardar Ajit Singh (1881–1947) was a prominent and influential leader in India's struggle for independence against British colonial rule. Born on 23 February 1881, into a family with a history of political activism, Sardar Ajit Singh became a key figure in the Ghadar Movement, a revolutionary campaign aimed at overthrowing British rule in India.

Ajit Singh's involvement in the Ghadar Movement took him to the United States, where he worked tirelessly to mobilize support, funds, and resources for the cause of Indian independence. He inspired the Indian diaspora in North America to contribute to the struggle for freedom back home.

Returning to India after World War I, Sardar Ajit Singh continued his activism, organizing protests and agitations against British oppression. His dedication and passionate advocacy influenced a generation of freedom fighters, including the revolutionary Bhagat Singh, who drew inspiration from Ajit Singh's commitment to the cause.

Sardar Ajit Singh's unwavering resolve and contributions to the fight for India's independence left an indelible mark on the nation's history. He passed away on 15 August 1947, just days after India achieved independence. His legacy continues to inspire generations and serves as a testament to the spirit of sacrifice and determination in the pursuit of a free and sovereign India.
