With a desire for freedom and a revolutionary spirit permeating every inch of his body and poetry, Ram Prasad Bismil was one of the most notable Indian revolutionaries who opposed British colonialism and enabled the country to breathe the air of freedom after centuries of struggle against the imperial forces.

Alongside Sukhdev, Bismil, who was born in 1897, was a well-liked member of the Hindustan Republican Association. Additionally, he took part in the infamous Kakori railway robbery, for which the British authorities executed him.
