This outraged the whole Nation so much that the British administration had to recognise that fact. This incident has gone down in the history of freedom struggle ‘Jhanda Satyagrah’. The Congress party constituted a committee under the leadership of Hakim Ajmal Khan to assess the extent of mental preparedness of the people in favour of the non cooperation movement. The Jabalpur Congress Committee decided to honour Mr Khan and host the tricolour on the building of the Jabalpur municipality. The British government took this act of honouring Mr Khan as an insult of the British rule and ordered the police to not only remove the flag but insult it by crushing it under feet. Consequently the people were extremely annoyed. Against this action(insulting the flag) Pandit Sundarlal, Subhadra Kumari Chauhan, Nathuram Modi, Lakshman Singh Chauhan and some volunteers took out a procession along with the tricolour.

Chain Singh and a handful of brave soldiers sacrificed their lives while fighting with British soldiers in Shore Dussehra Bagh. 4.

You may share this work for non-commercial purposes only, provided you give attribution to the copyright holder and the publisher, and provide a link to the Creative Commons licence. 1 India’s Rebel Queen: Rani Lakshmi Bai and the 1857 Uprising Harleen Singh Considered the “most dangerous of all the Indian leaders,” the Queen of Jhansi, Rani Lakshmi Bai, challenged the might of the British Empire in the Uprising of 1857 and died on the battlefield with her soldiers.1 Known as the greatest heroine of Indian history, represented variously in folk song, poetry, novel, and film, and commemorated with postage stamps and statues, the Rani (Hindi for Queen) of Jhansi is a contradictory figure in British history as both worthy foe and rapacious whore. My work looks at the historical and literary representations of a woman warrior to flesh out the myriad and conflicting, and yet often coterminous, narratives surrounding women in the public sphere.2 For example, Indian mythology has numerous Goddess figures who are invoked in the realm of war, and yet widespread understanding of women’s roles in India continues to stem from, and is limited to, the domestic. Similarly, even as Queen Victoria ruled England at the time of the rebellion in 1857, Indian queens were rarely entitled to occupy a parallel position of authority in British policies.

  • Daughter of Kashi – Queen of Jhansi
    Daughter of Kashi – Queen of Jhansi The Use of History of an Indian queen – the Rani Lakshmi Bai of Jhansi from the time of Independence until today Banaras dotter – Drottning av Jhansi Historiebruket av den indiska drottningen - Rani Lakshmi Bai av Jhansi från självständigheten år 1947 tills idag Victoria Lundin Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences Subject Master in History (History IV) Points 15 ECTS Credits Supervisor Per – Olof Fjällsby Examiner Martin Åberg Date 20150204 Abstract The purpose of this master thesis in history was to examine the use of history of an Indian queen, the Rani Lakshmi Bai of Jhansi. The Rani Lakshmi Bai was born in Banaras and married a king – the Raja of Jhansi. The Rani Lakshmi Bai fought against the British during the first war of independence year 1857-58. Recently, a memorial has been built at her supposed birthplace in Banaras, more than 150 years after her death. This development has raised several questions about the use of history of the Rani Lakshmi Bai. How has the use of history of Rani Lakshmi Bai changed? Why has it become relevant to build a statue of the Rani now and not before? The purpose of this study has been answered with the help of oral history and text analysis. Firstly, this has been done, by examining the knowledge of people from Banaras and Jhansi as well as through their perceived image of the Rani Lakshmi Bai. Twenty people from Banaras and four people from Jhansi have been interviewed. Secondly, the institutional level information has been examined which is presented in educational textbooks and newspapers like the local newspaper Aaj and the national newspapers The Hindu as well as The Times of India.

  • The Absent Women Characters in Mahesh Dattani's Bravely Fought the Queen
    2018 Heritage Vol.-V The women who fought bravely: The absent women characters in Mahesh Dattani’s Bravely Fought the Queen Piyali Gupta, Assistant Professor, PG Dept. of English, Bethune College, Kolkata-6 Abstract: This paper looks at the women characters who are mentioned or connected to the play Bravely Fought the Queen in some way but are not seen onstage. It would be seen how Dattani uses the offstage presence of these women to connect to his theme. Connecting historical and cultural narratives, Dattani attempts to show the pervasive presence of patriarchy in the lives of the women in the play. The invisibilization of women actually is a potent dramatic device contributing to the atmosphere in the play. Keywords : women, Rani Laxmi Bai, Subhadra Kumari Chauhan, Naina Devi, patriarchy, India Boy : What am I to tell Mr. Godot, Sir? Vladimir : Tell him . (he hesitates) . tell him you saw me andthat . ( he hesitates ) . that you saw me. (Samuel Beckett, Waiting for Godot ) One of the most novel attempts to extend theatre to offstagespace occurs in plays that foreclose any attempt whatsoever at direct enactmentof people or events; the simplest examples of such dramas are thosewhere one or more characters are thematically significant yet remain physically unrepresented. Waiting for Godot is certainly the most famousexample of such works. But plays about characterswho never appear on stage are far more common in theatre history than one might think. If anything, Beckett’s drama is not so much anexercise in novelty as a modern instance of a dramaturgical experimentthat has been repeated numerous times throughout Western theatrehistory.

  • UNIVERSITY of LONDON COLLEGE GOLDSMITHS in Service to India: the Ethics of Rule and Conduct of British Administrators and Army O
    1 UNIVERSITY OF LONDON GOLDSMITHS COLLEGE In Service to India: The ethics of Rule and conduct of British Administrators and Army Officers in late nineteenth and early twentieth century India By Jatinder S. Bam Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Sociology April 2003 2 UNIVERSITY OF LONDON ABSTRACT DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY Doctor of Philosophy IN SERVICE TO INDIA: THE ETHICS OF RULE AND CONDUCT OF BRITISH ADMINISTRATORS AND ARMY OFFICERS IN LATE NINETEENTH AND EARLY TWENTIETH CENTURY INDIA By latinder S. Bam In this study I explore the military, administrative and governmental practices of British men as rulers in India during the Victorian and early Edwardian period. The historical events that are the focus of this study are the massacres and disturbances in Punjab, Amritsar 1919. I concentrate on three ruling characters involved in these events; an administrator, a military officer, and an Indian Secretary of State. The central question I ask is: how are these white men who claim to be fitted to rule over others made? I explore the changing relationships between these men and the history of colonialism in India. More specifically, I examine the intersections between 3 movements for independence and shifts in styles of colonial domination amongst these men in India at the end of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. In analyzing the events of 1919 I bring together discourses usually separated in discussions of colonial power. First, by following Foucault's leads on the problem of government and his reformulation of it as 'governmentality', I pursue the question of colonial sUbjectivity and its constitution.
