The Unresolved Injustice In Munshiganj Linked To Nehru-Gandhi Family, Claims BJP’s Ajay Aggarwal

Rae Bareli, January 7 – Ajay Aggarwal, the renowned advocate and BJP’s MP candidate for Rae Bareli, paid homage to the 750 farmers who fell victim to British brutality on January 7, 1921. In a poignant gathering, he condemned the British government, likening the incident to the infamous Jallianwala Bagh massacre.

Gandhi Family Criticized

Aggarwal expressed frustration over the lack of recognition for Munshiganj despite decades of Congress rule and continuous representation by the Nehru-Gandhi family in Parliament. He pledged to work towards establishing the historical significance of the region and ensuring it receives the respect it deserves.

The Dark Day of January 7, 1921

Aggarwal recounted the tragic events of January 7, 1921, when unarmed farmers were ruthlessly fired upon by the British, resulting in over 750 deaths and 1500 injuries. He emphasized Munshiganj’s place in history, calling it a crucial movement against British oppression.

Sacrifice Embedded in the Soil

Aggarwal highlighted the sacrifice of Indian farmers during the Munshiganj firing incident, comparing it to the Jallianwala Bagh massacre. He described the town’s soil as bearing the essence of a movement that shook the foundations of British rule.

Untold Aspects of the Incident

Munshiganj, on the Sai River’s banks, witnessed a public meeting on January 5, 1921, led by Amol Sharma and Baba Janaki Das. The arrest of these leaders sparked unrest, culminating in the tragic events of January 7. The incident played a pivotal role in altering the course of the freedom struggle.

The Impact of Munshiganj Firing Incident

While the Munshiganj firing incident might not have received its due recognition in the history of the freedom struggle, Aggarwal acknowledged its success in reshaping the trajectory of India’s fight for independence.
