In the latest episode of Mann Ki Baat on 27th September 2020, Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi spoke about the art of storytelling. He mentioned that the history of stories is as ancient as the human civilization itself. ‘Where there is a soul, there is a story’.

As we are going to celebrate 75 years of independence, Prime Minister urged storytellers across the Nation to share stories of many inspiring events during the entire period of our enslavement. Especially, from 1857 to 1947, stories around every major or minor incident during this period can be introduced to our new generation.

“May this art of storytelling become stronger in the country, become more popularized and easier to imbibe - this is something we must all strive for”: PM Narendra Modi

Do you know of any inspiring event during the 1857-1947 freedom struggle that isn’t so well known? Maybe a long-forgotten hero who did not get as much prominence as he/she deserved? Maybe an incident which played a minor but important role in our struggle? A story you might have heard from a family elder, many years ago?

Tell us, we will feature your story for all Indians!

Share your story in the form of a video, audio clip, picture or essay.

हमारा स्वतन्त्रता इतिहास बहुत ही संघर्षों भरा रहा है इसमें हमारे स्वतंत्रता सेनानियों ने अंग्रेज़ो के खिलाफ 200 वर्षों तक संघर्ष किया अनेक लोगो ने अपना सर्वोच्च बलिदान दिया किसी ने अपनी जान दी किसी ने अपना पति खोया किसी ने भाई खोया किसी ने अपना बेटा खोया सभी ने कुछ न कुछ खोया लेकिन इस आन्दोलन को सभी आगे बढ़ाते रहे अंग्रेजो को हमारे सेनानियो ने चैन से बैठने नहीं दिया उन्हें लगातार संघर्ष करना पड़ा अंत में अंग्रेज़ो को हमसे हार माननी पड़ी, भारत को 15 अगस्त 1947 को आजादी देनी पड़ी यह हमारी जीत थी

After the shooting, Vanchinathan ran along the platform and took cover in the latrine. Sometime later he was found dead, having shot himself in the mouth. The pistol recovered from him was empty without any bullets as he just planned to kill himself after killing Ashe and had no intention to hurt anyone other than Ashe.

As the Ashes sat facing each other in the first class carriage, waiting for the Boat Mail to arrive, a neatly dressed man with tufted hair and another young man wearing a dhoti approached the carriage. The former boarded the carriage and pulled out a Belgian-made Browning automatic pistol. The bullet hit Ashe in the chest and he collapsed. The sound of the pistol shot was absorbed by the howling wind.

On 17 June 1911, Ashe boarded the 9:30 am Maniyachi Mail at Tirunelveli Junction. With him was his wife, Mary Lillian Patterson, who had arrived from Ireland only a few days earlier. They were on their way to Kodaikanal where their four children, Molly, Arthur, Sheila, and Herbert, lived in a rented bungalow. At 10:38 am, the train pulled in at Maniyachi. The Ceylon Boat Mail was due to arrive at 10:48 am.

Lakshmi bai, the Rani of Jhansi, was an Indian queen of the Maratha princely state of Jhansi in North India currently present in Jhansi district in Utter Pradesh, India. She was one of the leading figures of the Indian Rebellion of 1857 and became a symbol of resistance to the British Raj for Indian nationalists.

हमारे देश की आजादी में अपितु देश को भाईचारे का पाठ पढ़ाने वाले बहुत से महान पुरुष थे। लेकिन समयानुसार इन दो महान आत्माओं के बहादुरी और महानता के चर्चे हुए। बात उन दिनों की करता हूं जब देश में यूरोपियों, डचों और मुगलों की जड़े कमजोर हो रही थीं और ब्रिटिश जड़ें मजबूत कर चुकी थी। लेकिन भारत में कुछ शक्तियां भी थीं जो उनका लड़खड़ाते कदमों से सामना कर रहे थे। उसी झांसी की रानी लक्ष्मीबाई का इतिहास गौरवान्वित कर देने वाला था। इसी क्रम में महात्मा गांधी जोकि दुनिया को भाईचारे का पाठ सीखा गए..........!
