Balidan Diwas
December 19 holds a solemn place in India’s history as Balidan Diwas (Day of Sacrifice), a tribute to the martyrs who gave their lives in the fight for independence. On this day in 1927, Ram Prasad Bismil, Ashfaqulla Khan, and Roshan Singh were executed by the British for their roles in the historic Kakori Conspiracy. Their unparalleled courage and sacrifice have left an indelible mark on India’s struggle for freedom.
