Remembering unsung heroes, first war of freedom 1857

There is good chunk of people in our country having scant knowledge of Indian history holding the view that the war fought in the year 1857 was just a mutiny and a rebellion against the British empire and not a full scale first war of freedom for liberating India from the strong clutches of well established and powerful English empire.

But this notion/ general impression is far from being the reality. Therefore, with a view to fully understand this proposition, holistie view has been taken and arrived at the conclusion that it was an all out first war of freedom which laid the rock solid foundation of the edifice of cherished freedom from the colonial rule in India. This highly significant first war of freedom was led by committed and dare devil revolutionaries. It is a matter of great pride for all of us to remember and pay them our heartfelt salutations and regards. They could not achieve their goal but inspired innumerable youth to take a plunge into the ongoing grim fight for liberation. Let us have look at their daring deeds in the course of critical times and educate our progeny about their exemplary sacrifices and impactful contribution.
