About this listen

The history of India's struggle for freedom is usually told from the perspective of the non-violent movement. Yet, the story of armed resistance to colonial occupation is just as important. Names such as Vinayak Savarkar, Aurobindo Ghosh, Rashbehari Bose, Bagha Jatin, Sachindra Nath Sanyal, Bhagat Singh, Chandrashekhar Azad and Subhas Chandra Bose are still widely remembered. Their story is almost always presented as acts of individual heroism and not as part of a wider movement that had any overarching strategy or significant impact on the overall struggle for Independence. In reality, the revolutionaries were part of a large network that sustained armed resistance against the British Empire for half a century. They not only created a wide network inside India but also established nodes in Britain, France, Thailand, Germany, Persia, Russia, Italy, Ireland, the United States, Japan and Singapore. At various points, they received official support and recognition from the governments of some of these countries. Even the internal dynamics of the Indian National Congress of the time cannot be understood without the revolutionaries, who enjoyed widespread support within the organization. This was no small-scale movement of naive individual heroism but one that involved a large number of extraordinary young men and women who were connected in multiple ways to each other and to the evolving events of their times.

Krantikari, the Hindi translation of the bestselling Revolutionaries, tells their story, one that is replete with swashbuckling adventure, intrigue, espionage, incredible bravery, diabolical treachery and shockingly unpredictable twists of fate.

Please note: This audiobook is in Hindi.

what a shame for me!

It is a shamful for me that I haven't known nothing about these stories of unsung heroes of India. When I visited cellular Jail and attended the light sound show, I felt the history of torture. after reading this book, my mind has opened up. feeling proud of Netaji and other young freedom fighters.

Eye opening

This book is going to open your eye & you will know a lot of thing which our freedom fighters had done for our country. Especially you will know those people who were not associated wit Indian National Congress, and they are the real reason of our country's freedom.

an unsuccessful attempt

this is one of those books wherein the pure ideas and revolutionary steps of our beloved leaders have been unsuccessfully linked to the idea of Hindutva. the most regretful thing about this book is that RSS has been shown as the successor of Krantikaries. an attempt to rewrite history by including the RSS view and forcefully showing all the revolutionary leaders worked for Hindu India and not for the India which the leaders really believed in!
