It was just another day for me,until i my mobile beeped.thinking that to be one of the forwarded messages that flood my mobile every hour,i opened my inbox and read the message.....................
after reading the SMS i realised how important that day was....
the day am talking about is "28TH SEPTEMBER" birthday of BHAGAT SINGH,popularly known as SHAHEED BHAGAT SINGH.
the SMS i received read thus:
everyone celebrates the birthday of Gandhi on October 2nd,today 28.9.1907 birthday of bhagat singh...at least pass this message to every Indian

then i realised that being an Indian i don't know much about the freedom fighters who sacrificed their lives for our independence.this thought prompted me to know more about bhagat singh.
Bhagat Singh (September 28,[1] 1907–March 23, 1931) was an Indian freedom fighter, considered to be one of the most famous revolutionaries of the Indian independence movement. For this reason, he is often referred to as Shaheed Bhagat Singh (the word shaheed means "martyr"). He is also believed by many to be one of the earliest Marxists in India.[2] He was one of the leaders and founders of the Hindustan Socialist Republican Association (HSRA).
Born to a family which had earlier been involved in revolutionary activities against the British Raj in India, Bhagat Singh, as a teenager, had studied European revolutionary movements and was attracted to anarchism and communism.[3] He became involved in numerous revolutionary organizations. He quickly rose in the ranks of the Hindustan Republican Association (HRA) and became one of its leaders, converting it to the HSRA. Singh gained support when he underwent a 63 day fast in jail, demanding equal rights for Indian and British political prisoners. He was hanged for shooting a police officer in response to the killing of veteran social activist Lala Lajpat Rai. His legacy prompted youth in India to begin fighting for Indian independence and also increased the rise of socialism in India.[4]
