Saquib Salim explores the deep-rooted tradition ("parampara") of resistance and sacrifice in Punjab during India's fight for independence. He moves beyond standard textbook narratives to highlight how Punjab's contribution was not just about individual acts of bravery, but a strategic, multi-generational war against colonial rule.
From the morale-boosting wrestling victories of Gama Pehalwan to the global networks of the Ghadar Party and the INA, this talk uncovers the stories of families where patriotism was passed down like an inheritance.
Key Topics Covered:
Gama Pehalwan: How a wrestler from Amritsar defeated the World Champion in London, challenging the British narrative of "Indian weakness."
Lala Lajpat Rai & Ajit Singh: The global vision behind the 1907 movements and sending students abroad for revolutionary training.
The Tradition of Sacrifice: The moving story of revolutionary Harikishan Talwar and his father’s stoic pride during his trial.
Global Resistance: Ubaidullah Sindhi, the Silk Letter Movement, and the provisional government in Kabul.
The INA Connection: Shaukat Ali Malik (a Punjabi officer) and the hoisting of the tricolor at Moirang, Manipur.
Early Rebellions: The often-overlooked Ambala Conspiracy (Wahabi Trials) of 1864.
Women in the Movement: The critical role of figures like Durga Bhabhi.
