Lala Lajpat Rai was one of those great, fearless and brave freedom fighters who laid down their lives for the independence of the country. 

Lala Lajpat Rai was born in Ludhiana in the year 1865. Mahatma Hansraj inspired him to join politics for the national cause. He was a social worker and a great educationist too. It was due to his efforts that the D.A.V. College was established at Lahore. 

When he came to the national scene, the leaders demanded only some concessions from the oppressive British rulers, but he was the one who demanded self-rule. His association with Bal Gangadhar Tilak and Vipin Chandra Pal came to be known as Lal-Bal-Pal. When Lala Lajpat Rai saw that the British rule was no answer to the problems of the Indians, he exhorted his fellow Indians to fight for their freedom. He also visited Britain and the US in 1914 to make the international community aware of what was happening in India and to win their support. He became the President of the Indian National Congress at the special session in Calcutta (Kolkata) in 1914.

Lala Lajpat Rai not only led the people in the freedom struggle, but also founded the Bande Mataram, the Punjabee and the People newspapers to bring his views to the people and awaken them from their slumber to rise against the British and oust them from the country. He went to jail several times. He actively participated in the Non-Cooperation Movement. He also founded the Swaraj Party along with Motilal Nehru and C.R. Das. 

On October 30, 1928, Lala Lajpat Rai led a non-violent march to oppose the arrival of the Simon Commission in Lahore. The brutal British police lathi charged the demonstration. He sustained grievous lathi blows. He fell down bleeding profusely; nevertheless he thundered that every blow on him would prove to be the final nail in the coffin of the British rule. He succumbed to these injuries. His words came true. The country gained its freedom on August 15, 1947. Though Lala Lajpat Rai is not amongst us, but we shall continue to remember him for all times to come. We should remember his ideals in free India today.
