Description

Armed resistance to British imperialism, the study of which is often neglected and underplayed among students of mainstream history, is a significant part of India’s epic struggle for freedom. This volume includes essays, that have been written over several years, and which document various episodes of resistance and highlight the role of freedom fighters who inspired generations of Indians by their sacrifices. Among other incidents, the book discusses the Vellore Mutiny, the Chittagong Uprising, the Non-Cooperation Movement and the militants of Bengal, Gandhi’s attitude to the execution of Bhagat Singh, the Telengana and Kakdwip rising. The essays in the book also emphasize the fact that the fight against colonial oppression and exploitation was inextricably linked to the struggle against feudalism.
