DELHI IN THE ERA OF REVOLUTIONARIES 1857-1947
The Indian freedom struggle spanning across continents is one of the most significant events in human history. In the resistance against British rule, the ancient city of Delhi played a pivotal role. The First War of Independence – the Ghadr of 1857, was launched from Delhi. The bomb outrage in Chandni Chowk in 1912 captured India’s imagination and motivated Har Dayal’s Ghadr Party in California. In 1945, the trial of Subhas Chandra Bose’s Indian National Army officers at the Red Fort in Delhi wrecked the despotic British Empire worldwide. And the Indian tricolor was hoisted at Delhi’s Red Fort on 16 August 1947.
The history of India’s independence movement is also the story of everyday common folks in Delhi. Between 1857–1947, there were countless Dilliwallahs – old and young, mothers and fathers, daughters and sons, poor and rich – who acted with courage and conscience in a world falling apart around them. They came from all walks of life and were the truest reflection of India. The silent, selfless, and spirited revolutionaries of Delhi made extraordinary sacrifices for India’s liberation. We must not forget these nameless, faceless and unsung women and men even as their achievements slipped into yesteryears’ shadows. Their audacity, brilliance, creativity, and devotion brought freedom to millions and changed the course of world history.
We remain inspired by their martyrdom. This is their story.

The Man India Missed the Most
On an afternoon in the summer of 1944, the British and Japanese warplanes screamed across the peaceful skies dropping death over the dense jungles of Imphal and Kohima along the India Burma border.
On the frontline there was no time for fear.
Half a million men from all corners of the world were locked in one of the bloodiest battles of World War II. Firmly holding the tricolor, the Indian National Army advanced with the war cry “Delhi Chalo” (Onwards to Delhi). Their military objective was India’s independence. And their leader was Subhas Chandra Bose. With shells blasting, guns blazing and blood flowing, this was the defining moment of his life. He was the solitary Indian nationalist to confront the mighty British Empire on the battlefield.
A man of extraordinary will, Bose had embarked on death defying journeys for his motherland’s freedom across the treacherous mountains of Afghanistan, threatening waves of Atlantic and Indian Oceans, tortuous jungles of Burma – pursued by assassins and the spectre of death. Faced with impossible odds, he was determined to triumph over an undefined future with courage, dignity and honor. Bose had become the stuff of legends in his own lifetime.
And he was ‘The Man India Missed the Most’.
Soon to be a Feature Film and TV Series.
The Great Indian Genius Har Dayal
This is a lost episode of Indian history. Before Bose, much before Nehru and even before Mahatma Gandhi…there was Har Dayal.
On the morning of December 23rd, 1912, a powerful bomb targeted at the Viceroy Lord Hardinge exploded as he entered the new capital city of Delhi. Though the assassination bid failed it brought back the spectre of the Ghadr of 1857 and challenged the might of the British Empire. The British Secret Service connected the bomb outrage to the brain of Har Dayal (1884-1939) a former Stanford University lecturer based in San Francisco.
The history of the Indian freedom struggle has produced no greater enigma than this heroic leader. Har Dayal was the architect of the largest international anti-colonial resistance movement - the Ghadr Party, with its nerve center in California. His mission was to destroy the British Empire by an armed revolt and his weapon of choice was the colossal power of his intellect. Cerebrally light-years ahead, Har Dayal a super brilliant scholar at Oxford and St. Stephen’s College was eloquent in seventeen languages and an author par excellence. Exiled from India for life Har Dayal became Ghadr personified.
This gentleman revolutionary was the first Indian to teach at American and Swedish universities and an extraordinary mix of an Anarchist and a Pacifist, a Sanskritist and a Rationalist, a Marxist and a Buddhist, a Feminist and a Humanist as also an ultranationalist and an internationalist. For millions who sought to emulate the quintessential Dilliwallah, he was The Great Indian Genius.
