Bhagat Singh
This name is itself sufficient to fill your body with goosebumps for every Indian, and for Pakistan also. A 24 years old (or we should say 24 years young) boy sacrificed his life on fighting against the Britishers for the freedom of his motherland.
He was an Indian socialist revolutionary whose two acts of dramatic violence against the British in India and execution at age 23 made him a folk hero of the Indian independence movement.
We can get the idea about the popularity of Bhagat Singh by the following statements:
Subhas Chandra Bose said that: "Bhagat Singh had become the symbol of the new awakening among the youths." Nehru acknowledged that Bhagat Singh's popularity was leading to a new national awakening, saying: "He was a clean fighter who faced his enemy in the open field ... he was like a spark that became a flame in a short time and spread from one end of the country to the other dispelling the prevailing darkness everywhere". Four years after Singh's hanging, the Director of the Intelligence Bureau, Sir Horace Williamson, wrote: "His photograph was on sale in every city and township and for a time rivaled in popularity even that of Mr. Gandhi himself"
