Yes i say he is forgottern.His sacrifice is no less than that of Mahatama Gandhi.If Gandhi is our father of nation than he was real son of our country.His sacrifice was true,with a single aim,that was freedom of country by hook or crook.
Notes of bhagat singh written in imprisonment
Do any hearts beat faster
Do any faces brighten
To hear your foot steps on the stair
To meet you ,great you ,anywhere ?
Are any happier today
Through words they have heard you say ?
Life were not worth the living
If no one were the better
For having not met you on the way
Any known the sunshine of your stay.! “
Some couplets in Urdu
Jfar Admi usko na janiey ga
Vo ho kesa bhee sahibe fahmo jada
Jise aish mein yade khuda na rahi ,
Jise taish mein khofe khuda na raha
Main garon se hargij nahin rota
Kinu ke mere sath jo kush kia
vo mere ashna ne kia
In todays world we have completely forgotten him.We just respect him and feel proud when we hear about him but do we really follow for what he sacrificed.In todays world when a small kid sees a 10 or 100 or 1000 rupee note he will learn about Mahatama Gandhi.Is there no place for Bhagat Singh in Indian currency.Can’t we put one of his pics in 100 or 10 rupee note.It will make our children to know him better and to follow him truely.
Had he lived, Subhas Chandra Bose could have given a new turn to Independent India’s political history. But he lives on eternally in the Indian mind, more famous after his death.
While the Gandhi /Nehru faction of Congress has garnered much of the credit for India’s freedom struggle, it is important to remember that India’s freedom movement was in fact a movement of the masses and there were a number of great leaders with fierce patriotism and great visionary ideas who sacrificed their entire lives for the nation’s cause. We continue our series on the freedom fighters, on the occasion of Netaji’s 102nd birthday

India’s Republic Day
Known as Netaji (leader), Mr. Bose was a fierce and popular leader in the political scene in pre-independence India . He was the president of the Indian National Congress in 1937 and 1939, and founded a nationalist force called the Indian National Army. He was acclaimed as a semigod, akin to the many mythological heroes like Rama or Krishna, and continues as a legend in Indian mind.
