Chandrashekhar Azad Birth Anniversary: Remembering Azad

Chandrashekhar Azad Birth Anniversary: Katra of Prayagraj is a witness to Azad’s wrestling and his khichdi.

Today we are celebrating the 115th birth anniversary of Chandrashekhar Azad, the great revolutionary and true son of Mother India. Remembering his bravery.

There will be events all over the place. There is a kind of festival-like enthusiasm in the city of Sangam.

Not only the old people in Prayagraj, but the new boys have also come to know about Azad by reading and listening.

They consider it a matter of pride that their city has a connection with Azad. It is definitely sad that he was martyred in Prayagraj but he died for the country and it is also a matter of pride for Prayagraj.

Smoke did not come out of Bamtul Bukhara, the British used to dodge.

Many revolutionaries laid down their lives to get the freedom with which we are breathing. On 23rd July, the birth anniversary of revolutionary Chandrashekhar Azad, we tell about his pistol.

This pistol, which once adorned the State Museum of Lucknow, is presently present in the museum of Prayagraj.

Lucknow State Museum director Dr. AK Singh said that there was no smoke after Azad’s pistol was fired. Because of this, the British could not find out from behind the trees where the bullet was fired.

The pistol was made in 1903 by the Colts Manufacturing Company, which made the American firearm.

Which is now known as Colt Patent Fire Arms Manufacturing Company. Point 32 bore pistol was hammerless semi-automatic. It used to have a magazine of eight bullets.

It does not emit smoke after firing, which facilitated the martyr Chandrashekhar Azad to take a front from the British.

Azad used to aim and shoot from the cover of trees. Due to no smoke coming out of the pistol, the British officers and soldiers could not know when they were behind which tree.

Azad named this pistol as Bamtul Bukhara. In 1976, it was moved from Lucknow to Prayagraj Museum.

Statue will be installed in Hindnagar, Lucknow: Amit Azad of Chandrashekhar Azad’s family told that people want to know everything about Chandrashekhar Azad.

We are trying to do this. On the initiative of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, there is a proposal to install his statue in Hindnagar on Kanpur Road.

The government has earmarked the land for setting up a grand statue. Will once again meet the Chief Minister on his birth anniversary and ask for the time for laying the foundation stone.
