The tale of Bhagat Singh and his fellow martyrs is one of unyielding courage and sacrifice. Accused in the Lahore conspiracy case, they were unjustly sentenced to death by hanging. However, the British government, wary of potential public unrest, executed them clandestinely on the eve of the scheduled date, March 23, 1931. On that fateful day, Bhagat Singh, Rajguru, and Sukhdev faced their fate with a stoic resolve, their smiles betraying neither fear nor regret.
