the country would have become independent 32 years earlier, i.e. in 1915.





 There was also a revolutionary whose plan had succeeded and his partner had not betrayed him, then the country would have become independent 32 years earlier, i.e. in 1915.  When people used to live in fear even in their homes, wherever he saw the British, he used to beat them, this was Jatindranath Mukherjee who was famous among his friends as Bagha Jatin.



 He became famous for his bravery when he controlled a stray horse in his area.  After his father's death, he was brought up in his maternal grandmother's house. Along with his maternal uncle, he often met Rabindranath Tagore, who greatly influenced his life.  He started playing roles like Dhruva, Prahlad, Hanuman and Raja Harishchandra in plays.  During this time, he beat up four Englishmen simultaneously for insulting an Indian.  The British also started avoiding entanglement with them.


While studying at Calcutta Central College, he started visiting Swami Vivekananda, from whom he got the belief that a healthy mind resides only in a healthy strong body.


 In 1899, Jatin arrived in Muzaffarpur as the secretary of Barrister Pingle, who was a barrister as well as a historian, with whom Jatin realized that India should have its own National Army.



 Once there was a terror of a leopard in his village, so he set out to search for it in the forest, but came face to face with the Royal Bengal Tiger.  Jatin killed him with his Khukri.  Honored by the Government of Bengal at a ceremony.  Since then his name was Bagha Jatin.



 When the Prince of Wales came to Calcutta in 1905, there were some Englishmen sitting on the roof of a carriage in his convoy, and their shoes were hanging on the windows, right in the face of the women sitting in the carriage.  Jatin got angry and asked the British to get down, but when they did not agree, Bagha Jatin climbed up and beat everyone one by one.  Beat until everyone fell down.  But three big things happened from this incident.  Their rulers as well as the world came to know about the behavior of the Indians by the British, the fear of them vanished from the minds of the Indians and the respect for the name of Bagha Jatin increased even more in the minds of the revolutionaries.


He was sent to Darjeeling for three years, where he started Bandhav Samiti, a branch of Anushilan Samiti.  He again had a clash with a British military group at Siliguri station.  The British, led by Captain Murphy, misbehaved with Jatin, so Jatin single-handedly beat up those eight.



 Meanwhile, Jatin da was arrested on the charge of provoking the Jat regiment stationed in Fort William. In those days, the British government, which was running the government of the country from Fort William, was fed up with many Bengali revolutionaries like Bagha Jatin, Aurobindo Ghosh, Rash Bihari Bose.  .



 Ross Hadwick of Czech later wrote that 'If Emmanuel Victor Voska had not entered into this plan, no one in India would have even heard the name of Gandhi and Bagha Jatin would have been called the Father of the Nation.



 Police got a clue that Jatin and his associates were in Kaptipada village.  Jatin was accompanied by Manoranjan and Chittapriya.  He ran away from there, Jatin and his companions ran towards the forests, the British announced a huge reward for Jatin, now the villagers also started searching for him.  Here a large quantity of German weapons were recovered.  The revolution had failed.  The dream had turned into dust.



 On 10 September 1915, this great soldier sacrificed his life in the hospital itself.



 Humble tribute and deep respect to the great revolutionary Jatin Das on his martyrdom day.
