Revolutionary Balraj Bhalla was born on June 10, 1888 in Gujranwala district of Punjab.
He joined the freedom movement at the young age of seventeen. He was inspired by the ideas and vision of Dadabhai Naoroji, Bankim Chandra Chatterjee, Bal Gangadhar Tilak and Romesh Chandra Dutt. He joined the revolutionary movement at a young age. Because of this his university degrees were withdrawn. He was also an admirer of Lala Lajpat Rai who was very close to his father.
Bhalla was inclined towards revolutionary ideas and worked for armed rebellion against the colonial government. Balraj was very courageous and was ready to take the biggest risk. He believed that there was no harm in killing some representatives of imperialism or looting government banks in order to fulfil the sacred cause of independence. In 1919, Balraj Bhalla was sentenced to three years imprisonment on the charge of throwing a bomb on the Viceroy’s car.
He was one of the prisoners who went on a hunger strike along with Bhagat Singh demanding to be treated as political prisoners. Listen to Azadi ke Deewane with Manni Sharma by Audio Pitara.

EP 31 - Tavayaf Ya Asli Swatantrata Senani
The word tawaif is used as an abuse nowadays. It was not always like this.
Known as tawaifs in the north, devadasis in the south, baijis in Bengal, and nayikas in Goa, these professional singers and dancers were called “dance girls” during British rule, and in the late 19th century their profession was equated with prostitution. Was added.
In 1857, when Indian soldiers surrounded the British East India Company officials and laid siege to Cawnpore (now Kanpur), a prostitute was also with them. During the encounter, when bullets were being fired all around, at least one eyewitness saw the prostitute armed with a pistol. The fascinating story of Azizunbai finds no mention in history textbooks. Listen to Azadi ke Deewane with Manni Sharma by Audio Pitara.

EP 30 - Asaf Ali
A husband and wife who both were freedom fighters and remained useful to the country till the end.
In 1928, Aruna got married to Allahabad Congress Party leader Asaf Ali. Asaf Ali was 21 years older than Aruna. When I started meeting Gandhiji after my marriage, he called my marriage a symbol of Hindu-Muslim unity. But I resisted him and said that I did not marry Asaf because he was a Muslim. Was an Indian freedom fighter and famous Indian lawyer. He was the first ambassador from India to the United States. He also served as the Governor of Odisha.
On 8 August 1942, when the Congress Party passed the Quit India resolution in its Mumbai session, the British decided to crush it strictly. The result was that all the Congress leaders including Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru were arrested, but this had no effect on the firebrand leader Aruna Asaf Ali who was participating in that session. The next day i.e. on August 9, defying all the restrictions of the British government, he hoisted the tricolour flag of Congress at Gowalia Tank Ground in Mumbai, which is nowadays called ‘Azad Maidan’. After this, instead of being arrested, she went underground.
