Sukhdev

Sukhdev, who was active in the Hindustan Socialist Republican Association and was born in 1907, was a fearless revolutionary. He was unquestionably one of the heroes of the Indian independence movement. He worked closely with his coworkers Shivram Rajguru and Bhagat Singh.

He was charged with taking part in the murder of British officer John Saunders. Unfortunately, on March 23, 1931, in Hussainwala, Punjab (now in Pakistan), he was apprehended at the age of 24 and hanged alongside Bhagat Singh and Shivaram Rajguru.
