Bhagat Singh
He is
the symbol of the heroism of the youth of India.
A revolutionary He threw a bomb when the
Legislature was in session to warn the British
Government. He was put to death but lives in the
hearts of his countrymen.
One
evening a boy of three was out for a walk with
his father. There was also an elderly man with
the father. Chatting they walked on and went
beyond the village. Green crop delighted the
eyes. The elders were walking along the edge of
a field. Not hearing the footsteps of the boy,
the father looked back. The boy was sitting on
the ground and seemed to be planting some thing.
The father became curious.
"What are you
doing?" said he.
"Look, father, I shall
grow guns all over the field" was the innocent
reply of the boy. His eyes shone with the strong
faith that guns would grow in the field. Both
the elders were struck with wonder at the little
boy's words.
The boy was Bhagat Singh who
later fought like a hero for India's freedom and
sacrificed his life.
