Shaheed-e-Azam Bhagat Singh’s

The Most Revolutionary Concept In Education PLANMAN CHE CENTRE FOR HIGHER EDUCATION, Supported by IIPM India’s Leading B-School

Bhagat Singh, if alive, would have been a true youth icon for the country today

Gandhi’s principles cannot prove to be effective in today’s world, though even Bhagat Singh did not participate in violence. He believed in action which Gandhi did not take up. Bhagat Singh had only injured one Britisher who was responsible for Lala Lajpat Rai’s demise. Also, the bomb that he had thrown in the parliament was not really a bomb. That was a cracker which was only meant to send across a message. Bhagat Singh was not in favour of violence and certainly did not want bloodshed of innocent people. The British had proposed the Trade Dispute Bill against which Bhagat Singh had raised his voice. The Bill was later withdrawn. So, it was determination more than anything else that Bhagat Singh played on.

Bhagat Singh wanted to harness the energy of India’s youth and channelise it to attain independence. If you look back, Bhagat Singh’s popularity had soared amidst the youth. So much so that Gandhi was threatened enough to dismiss his approach as not really ideal.

Bhagat Singh dreamt of independence too. He participated in the freedom struggle with Gandhi and attended the Congress sessions. The Asahyog Andolan (Non Cooperation Movement) made Bhagat Singh drift away and choose his own means of mobilising the youth to take steps against suppression. During that time when Gandhi and Nehru were representatives of India, Bhagat Singh’s uncle, Ajit Singh (who had been an associate of Lala Lajpat Rai) had met the two leaders and voiced his concerns on the Partition, and warned that the country would have to pay a heavy price for it in the years to come. But then the tug of war between Jinnah and Nehru for the Prime Minister’s post divided India into three parts. The words proved to be prophetic, for even today we continue to waste money and resources on issues to do with our borders, communalism and terrorism.
