Bharat Singh English 2007

Bhagat Singh: Liberations Blazing Star In the birth centenary year of Bhagat Singh, LeftWord is proud to present this tribute to one of Indias most outstanding revolutionaries. Besides being a salute to this extraordinarily heroic figure of the Indian national liberation struggle, Bhagat Singh, Liberations Blazing Star seeks to situate him in his own times and come to an understanding of his legacy and its relevance today. In doing so, it argues not only against the Congress efforts to dilute Bhagat Singhs revolutionary legacy and the Hindu Rights efforts to mutilate it, but also the extreme lefts efforts to project Bhagat Singh and his comrades as the only truly revolutionary force in the national liberation struggle, pitting them against the Communist Party.
