The August 1542 Student Movement

 

The August 1542 Student Movement: A Struggle for Patriotism and Freedom

 

 

 

In the city of Nandarvad, on August 6th, students heard the news of the arrest of the country's leaders, upon which they organized a small procession. The procession comprised boys and girls aged 5 to 15 years.


As the procession passed through the market, someone
attacked the police constable of the 6th Julis. It was alleged that there was opposition to the constable, and the person who was opposed to him intentionally fired shots. The boys were unarmed, but the constable panicked
for no reason and fired shots at the children. The children started running. A 14-year-old boy held the Congress flag. The police did not arrest him, but a trigger-happy constable fired shots at the boy. In this incident, 5 people were
killed and 12 were seriously injured, including a girl. The police fired shots at the students without concrete evidence.

Shrimati Aruna Devi

 

In the Dhule district of Bombay, a constable also fired shots at the students' procession, injuring a 14-year-old boy. Students in Vadodara were also shot at, even with rifles.

 

Did the riots become the cause of Gujarat? After the arrest of the leaders, the government imposed a ban on all kinds of gatherings and processions. The public was angry, and due to this ban, their anger only intensified. Wherever this ban was in place, people violated it. The government resorted to lathi charges, firing, and tear gas. The firing was so severe that it became a daily occurrence for the people. In Ahmedabad and Kheda districts, police officers killed 6 people. Their names became well known throughout Gujarat. Due to the activities of the underground gangsters, the police were troubled, but no one was caught. The police spread terror in the villages, so that no one could help the truth. To intimidate people, unjust and baseless collective fines were imposed on them, and in many places, people were fined so that they would not stop protesting. For this, the police increased awareness and kept an eye on the people so that no one could escape and the situation remained calm without any reaction.

 

The movement in the United Provinces and Bengal gained a lot of attention throughout India. The activists here took steps that proved to be very important in immobilizing the government's machinery. It is useful that Gujarat also participated in it. It cannot be said that there was no violence in Gujarat, but most of the activities remained constructive. The movement here started with a general strike and boycott. It lasted from three days to three months. There was a general strike for a month in Nadiad and for three and a half months in Ahmedabad, and all factories, mills, and markets remained completely closed. Governments opposed people with the policy of carrot, stick, and division, but its effect could not be felt. The strike was led by laborers and their supporters, and they are credited with its success. Even after facing difficulties for such a long time, the strike remained effective, but some government supporters and their supporters ended the strike, otherwise it would have continued for two more months. During the strike days, all of Ahmedabad followed the regime of non-violence.

 

Indeed, the August 1542 movement was a student movement. Although students in Gujarat could have stayed away from this movement! If all the programs after the general strike had been called the program of the students, there would have been no objection. The students initiated the movement against the opposition of schools and colleges. The boycott of colleges continued in Ahmedabad, Vadodara, and Kheda for a full 6 months. The students who boycotted colleges participated fully in meetings and processions and opposed the government's oppressive actions, violating orders, and introduced their patriotism. This movement left its mark all over Gujarat. The government, which was trying to destroy Indian independence, was rejected by the students and challenged the government's rule.

 

In these activities, many students became martyrs while sacrificing. Their lives were lost due to bullets and beatings. Vinod Kinariwala was martyred by the police while fighting against national corruption. Rasik Jani, Gandhi Shap, Yushpabdan, and Himmat Lal Kedia sacrificed for the country's independence. Along with them, many unknown students and female students also became martyrs, but nothing was written about them in government and non-governmental reports. But their sacrifice for the country's independence is not ordinary.

The Heroic Life of Ashulal Marwadi: An Indian Revolutionary from Pali Marwar

 ### The Heroic Life of Ashulal Marwadi: An Indian Revolutionary from Pali Marwar


#### Early Life and Background


Ashulal Marwadi was born on September 12, 1883, in the quaint village of Pali Marwar, located in the Pali district of Rajasthan. He was a member of the Barhmen family, known for their strong opposition to British rule in India. Ashulal's life was deeply rooted in the soil of Pali Marwar, where he worked as a vegetable seller in the local market. He and his wife, Kanata, had a large family, consisting of four sons and one daughter. Despite his humble occupation, Ashulal Marwadi's life took a dramatic turn as he became an influential figure in the Indian independence movement.


#### Revolutionary Activities


Ashulal Marwadi's transformation from a simple farmer to a revered revolutionary was fueled by his deep-seated resentment against the British Raj. The Barhmen family, to which he belonged, had several members who were prominent opponents of British rule. This environment of resistance and rebellion played a significant role in shaping Ashulal's ideology and actions.


As a young man, Ashulal was drawn to the cause of Indian independence. His involvement in the freedom struggle grew over the years, and he became an active participant in various revolutionary activities. His commitment to the cause was unwavering, and he soon adopted the pseudonym Sadhu Hari Baba to avoid detection by the British authorities. This new identity allowed him to operate covertly and continue his efforts to undermine British control.


#### The London Court Case and Its Impact


One of the most significant events in Ashulal Marwadi's life was his involvement in a landmark court case in London. The case revolved around a dispute between the princely states of Alwar and Bharatpur in Rajasthan, concerning the distribution of water from the Ruparel River. The conflict had escalated to such an extent that it was brought before the British colonial government and ultimately to a court in London.


Ashulal Marwadi, under his alias Sadhu Hari Baba, played a crucial role in rallying support for the Alwar state. His eloquence and determination caught the attention of many, and he became a key figure in the legal battle. The case dragged on for several years, and it became a symbol of the broader struggle against British domination. Although the dispute was eventually resolved in 1928, the case left a lasting impression on Ashulal and solidified his reputation as a dedicated freedom fighter.


#### The Pseudonym and Final Years


For the last three decades of his life, Ashulal Marwadi lived under the pseudonym Sadhu Hari Baba. This alias not only provided him with a layer of protection from the British authorities but also allowed him to continue his revolutionary activities with a certain degree of anonymity. During this period, he traveled extensively across India, spreading the message of independence and inspiring countless others to join the movement.


Despite the constant threat of arrest and execution, Ashulal remained committed to the cause. His unwavering dedication earned him the respect and admiration of his fellow revolutionaries and the general populace. However, his relentless pursuit of freedom eventually led to his capture by the British authorities.


#### Capture and Execution


In a tragic turn of events, Ashulal Marwadi was arrested for the murder of British soldiers, an act he was accused of committing in the course of his revolutionary activities. The British authorities, eager to make an example of him, swiftly conducted his trial. Despite the lack of concrete evidence and numerous appeals for clemency, Ashulal was sentenced to death.


On October 17, 1939, at the age of 63, Ashulal Marwadi was hanged. His execution marked the end of a remarkable life dedicated to the struggle for India's independence. However, his legacy lived on, inspiring future generations of Indians to continue the fight against colonial rule.


#### Legacy and Influence


Ashulal Marwadi's life and sacrifice had a profound impact on the Indian independence movement. His story is a testament to the power of ordinary individuals to effect extraordinary change. The courage and determination he displayed throughout his life served as a beacon of hope for countless others who dreamed of a free India.


In Pali Marwar, Ashulal's legacy is still remembered and celebrated. The village, which was once the backdrop of his early life, now stands as a symbol of resistance and resilience. His family, particularly his children, continued to honor his memory and contributions to the freedom struggle.


#### Conclusion


The story of Ashulal Marwadi, the farmer from Pali Marwar who became a revolutionary, is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by countless individuals in the quest for India's independence. His life, marked by courage, determination, and an unwavering commitment to the cause, continues to inspire and resonate with people to this day. As we reflect on his contributions, we are reminded of the enduring spirit of resistance that ultimately led to the liberation of India from colonial rule.

Charan Lakha: The Unparalleled Tale of a Prominent Entrepreneur in Indian History

 In the heart of Madhya Pradesh, amidst the whispers of winds and the rhythm of life, lived a man whose name echoed through the corridors of time - Charan Lakha. Born into the humble abode of Thakur Harku and Sobhavati Kanwar, Charan was destined for greatness from the very beginning.


A businessman of Arabian horses, Charan's annual sale of 1 lakh horses was a testament to his prowess in the trade. Supported by a loyal group of 2000 helpers, he carved a niche for himself in the bustling markets of his time.


But Charan's journey to success was not solitary; it was woven with the threads of his father's wisdom and guidance. Together, they traversed the landscapes of many countries, unraveling the secrets of business and commerce.


Charan's time spanned from 1711 to 1784, a period marked by adventure, achievement, and adversity. His village remained unknown, shrouded in the mysteries of history, while the state of Madhya Pradesh provided the backdrop for his remarkable tale.


A man of diverse interests, Charan found solace in the pages of books, the strokes of a pen, and the thrill of horse riding. His journeys across oceans made him a skilled swimmer, navigating the waves with the ease of a seasoned sailor.


In the embrace of the Charan community, Charan found strength and solace, their devotion to Ma Bhawani resonating with his own. But amidst the blessings of family and faith, tragedy struck when his beloved son, Peru, passed away in 1747 at the age of 20, leaving behind a void that could never be filled.


Yet, life continued to unfold, and Charan's daughter, Ramabai, found happiness in marriage to a wealthy Charan family in the village of Kundur, Afghanistan.


The winds of history blew fiercely when the Marathas extended their hand in friendship to Charan Lakha. The Battle of Tunga, with their cooperation, incited the wrath of the kings of Rajputana, casting a shadow over Charan's business endeavors in the region.


In another tale of bravery and resilience, Charan faced a Somali attack during his travels in Tanzania. His soldiers fought valiantly, emerging victorious and seizing a treasure trove of gold, diamonds, and jewels from the defeated pirates.


Amidst it all, the British harbored resentment towards Charan Lakha, but their anger was tempered by his indispensable contribution of horses to their endeavors.


In 1789, Charan Lakha's remarkable journey came to an end in Afghanistan, his final resting place. Yet, his legacy endures through the temples he built - the Ma Bhawani Temple in Kundur, Afghanistan, and the Ma Kalika Temple in Surakhani town, a suburb of Baku, Azerbaijan. As the sands of time shift and the winds of change blow, the story of Charan Lakha continues to inspire and captivate, a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the enduring power of legacy.
