New Delhi, May 15: Whenever the discussion of revolutionaries arises in the country, the tales of the bravery of Bhagat Singh, Rajguru, and Sukadev come to mind. Among these revolutionaries, Sukadev Thapar was born on May 15, 1907, in Lyallpur, Ludhiana.
Sukadev Thapar waged a battle against British imperialism at a young age, giving a new direction to the Indian freedom struggle. He lost his father when he was just three years old. From childhood, Sukadev had a desire to make a difference. He not only instilled a sense of patriotism in the youth but also actively participated in revolutionary activities.
At the age of about 12, Sukadev was deeply affected by the Jallianwala Bagh massacre in 1919. After completing his matriculation from the Sanatan Dharma High School in Lyallpur, he enrolled in the National College in Lahore, where he met Bhagat Singh. In 1926, Sukadev was the main organizer of the ‘Naujawan Bharat Sabha’ formed in Lahore.
Following the brutal lathi charge on a rally against the Simon Commission, which left Lala Lajpat Rai seriously injured and later dead, Sukadev and Bhagat Singh decided to take revenge.
Sukadev Thapar is often regarded as the backbone of this young revolutionary movement. He wrote a letter to Mahatma Gandhi from jail, which is still considered an important historical document.
Accused in the Lahore Conspiracy Case, Sukadev Thapar, Shivaram Rajguru, and Bhagat Singh were executed on March 23, 1931. At the young age of 24, Sukadev sacrificed his life for the nation.
