A 16-year-old boy from an affluent family goes to America in 1912 for his studies. As soon as he steps off the ship on American soil, he is interrogated and his luggage is also searched while the other passengers are not treated like this. When the boy asks those officers the reason for this, he gets the answer, "You have come from India which is a slave country." Hearing this, the boy is stunned, because he had never thought that he was a resident of the slave country. But these few words of those American officials make a deep impact on his mind. This boy was Kartar Singh Sarabha, in whose mind the feeling of freeing India was born. Kartar Singh made it the purpose of life that he would unite the youth studying abroad to fight for India's independence. To achieve this goal, on the appeal of revolutionaries like Kartar Singh Sarabha, about 8000 Indians from abroad started towards India.
The day of 21 February 1915 was fixed for the mutiny against the British in the whole country. But a traitor conveyed this information to the British, after which this date was changed. Because every news had already reached the British, the British government started capturing the people of the party. In such a situation, someone advised Kartar Singh to flee to Afghanistan but Kartar Singh did not go and kept working for the campaign.
He was tried under the name of Lahore Conspiracy. Kartar Singh was very young but his love for the country was unbreakable. Like Bhagat Singh, he was not afraid to lay down his life for the country. After his trial, the judge sentenced him to death and said, "At such a young age this boy is a great danger to the British Empire." Do not know what soil Kartar Singh was made of, during the last hearing in the court case, he said, "I want that I should get the death penalty so that I can be born again in India and I will live in India till the country becomes independent. Keep taking birth."
