A man of many shades managed to unite many factions to make possible for INDIA to be free from 200 years of colonial rule & emerge as a NATION.
While he has been transformed into a MAHATMA, although he was simply a common man who also made many mistakes.

Remembering the bravest son of INDIA Shaheed Bhagat Singh on his birth anniversary.
A staunch secular, democratic at core & patriotic at heart.
He was hanged at the tender age of 23.
For so long he and his comrades were not treated equally at par with other nationalist.

Sadly, his dream of equitable India remain unfulfilled.

लिख रहा हूँ मैं अंजाम जिसका…
कल आगाज़ आएगा…
मेरे लहू का हर एक कतरा… इंकलाब लाएगा।”

At one point around 1960s & in 1985 India & China's growth trajectory collided with each other but since then the gap is increasing monumentally & will continue to be so.
Deep structural reforms are necessary in our economic structure as well as the workforce to truly be developed.

In 1943, deep inside the forests, I suddenly saw the barrel of a gun emerge from the bushes. Without thinking, I jumped in front of Netaji. Three bullets hit me. I fell unconscious… and when I opened my eyes, Netaji was standing beside me. Captain Lakshmi Sehgal had removed the bullets from my body.”

Moved by his extraordinary courage and loyalty, Netaji honored Nizamuddin with the title of ‘Colonel.’ From that day on, he was not just a soldier — he became Netaji’s driver, bodyguard, and a trusted aide who stayed by his side in the most dangerous times.

A silent hero.
A fearless protector.
A story of devotion written in bullets and bravery.

वो कारनामा जो इतिहास की किताबों में दबा रह गया…
जो काम रामप्रसाद बिस्मिल, चंद्रशेखर आज़ाद और भगत सिंह जैसे महान क्रांतिकारियों ने करने की योजना बनाई,

लेकिन परिस्थितियों के कारण पूरा न कर सके —
वही काम एक अकेले इंसान ने कर दिखाया।
ना कोई संगठन, ना कोई हथियारबंद दल… सिर्फ़ हौसला और जज़्बा।

उस शख़्स का नाम था — शेर अली अफरीदी।

इतिहास का वो पन्ना जिसे जानबूझकर हल्का कर दिया गया
ना स्कूल की किताबों में उनका ज़िक्र है,
ना उनकी जयंती या पुण्यतिथि मनाई जाती है,
यहाँ तक कि ज़्यादातर “क्रांतिकारियों की सूची” में भी उनका नाम नहीं मिलता।
लेकिन सच्चाई ये है कि —
उन्होंने ब्रिटिश हुकूमत के सबसे ताक़तवर प्रतीक को खत्म कर दिया।

कौन थे शेर अली अफरीदी?
शेर अली अफरीदी खैबर क्षेत्र के रहने वाले थे।
वे एक समय ब्रिटिश पुलिस में भी रहे।
एक पारिवारिक मामले में सज़ा मिलने के बाद उन्हें
‘काले पानी’ — अंडमान की जेल भेज दिया गया।
जेल की दीवारों के भीतर उन्होंने अंग्रेज़ी ज़ुल्म, नस्लीय भेदभाव
और सत्ता की क्रूरता को बेहद क़रीब से देखा।
यहीं उनके भीतर प्रतिरोध की आग और तेज़ हो गई।
वो शाम जिसने ब्रिटिश साम्राज्य को हिला दिया
8 फ़रवरी 1872 —

ब्रिटिश भारत का वायसराय लॉर्ड मेयो,
अंडमान की जेल का निरीक्षण कर लौट रहा था।
शाम का अंधेरा था, सुरक्षा कड़ी थी।
लेकिन उसी अंधेरे में

शेर अली अफरीदी चीते की तरह झपटे
और अपनी छुरी से वायसराय पर हमला कर दिया।
➡️ लॉर्ड मेयो मारा गया।
➡️ यह इतिहास में किसी वायसराय की एकमात्र सफल हत्या थी।

“मैंने इसे खुदा के हुक्म से मारा है”
गिरफ्तारी के बाद जब उनसे कारण पूछा गया,
तो उन्होंने बिना डर के कहा —
“मैंने इसे खुदा के हुक्म से किया।
ज़ालिम सत्ता के ख़िलाफ़।”
उन्हें मौत की सज़ा सुनाई गई।
लेकिन कहा जाता है कि

उन्होंने फाँसी के फंदे को मुस्कुराकर चूम लिया।
फिर सवाल उठता है — हम उन्हें क्यों याद रखें?

▪ क्योंकि उन्होंने साबित किया कि
कोई भी सत्ता इतनी बड़ी नहीं होती कि उसे चुनौती न दी जा सके।
▪ क्योंकि उन्होंने अकेले वो कर दिखाया
जो साम्राज्य को असंभव लगता था।
▪ क्योंकि अंडमान की धरती पर
उन्होंने शहादत का इतिहास लिखा।
▪ और क्योंकि इतिहास सिर्फ़ किताबों में नहीं,
सच और साहस में ज़िंदा रहता है।
आज ज़रूरत है गुमनाम नायकों को याद करने की
शेर अली अफरीदी

शायद किसी पाठ्यक्रम का हिस्सा न हों,
लेकिन उनका साहस, उनका प्रतिरोध
आज भी रोंगटे खड़े कर देता है।

Nikkhil Advani direction of the series, adapted from the book of the same name written by Dominique Lapierre and Larry Collins, brings certain characters into question. Although, the series fails to depict the nature of mass resistance towards British rule in India and the atrocities that occurred, such as the frequently occurring plague and issues affecting women. And also shies away from questioning the communal politics of the Mahasabha.

1. very convincingly portrayed , particularly his continuous struggle with cough. From 1937 onwards, or some years prior, Jinnah used disruptive strategies to create barriers for the Congress. He often utilized Liaqat Khan to incite violence, resulting in riots that affected both Hindus and Muslims, especially women. Liaqat obeyed Jinnah's orders religiously. Notably, Jinnah is shown consuming alcohol in several scenes.

2. beautifully portrayed , although Ben Kingsley's portrayal of Gandhi was incomparable. Gandhi wielded significant power in Congress's policy affairs over Nehru and Patel. Azad maintained a good relationship with Gandhi. While Patel viewed matters practically, Gandhi reminded him that their fight was for the country, not power.

3. effectively characterized , who admired Gandhi but became more assertive in his engagements with Jinnah in the mid-1940s. Nehru often shown helpless when it comes to dealing with Jinnah and often talks very loudly when meeting with him. Not to be forgotten how Nehru sabotaged the 1946 Cabinet Mission Plan, the last hope to keep a united India and then Jinnah pulls out league out of the CMP.

4. played , who respected Gandhi but did not admire him like Nehru and Azad did. Patel had practical perspectives but supported Nehru's views and occasionally acted as a father figure to him.

5. played , who remained largely silent throughout the series, except for the Jama Masjid Juma Khutba, a clarion call.
