In the latest episode of Mann Ki Baat on 27th September 2020, Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi spoke about the art of storytelling. He mentioned that the history of stories is as ancient as the human civilization itself. ‘Where there is a soul, there is a story’.

As we are going to celebrate 75 years of independence, Prime Minister urged storytellers across the Nation to share stories of many inspiring events during the entire period of our enslavement. Especially, from 1857 to 1947, stories around every major or minor incident during this period can be introduced to our new generation.

“May this art of storytelling become stronger in the country, become more popularized and easier to imbibe - this is something we must all strive for”: PM Narendra Modi

Do you know of any inspiring event during the 1857-1947 freedom struggle that isn’t so well known? Maybe a long-forgotten hero who did not get as much prominence as he/she deserved? Maybe an incident which played a minor but important role in our struggle? A story you might have heard from a family elder, many years ago?

Tell us, we will feature your story for all Indians!

Share your story in the form of a video, audio clip, picture or essay.

his indigo factory replica has 95 clay figures of Indian workers, four oxen and an English sahib. If you look carefully, it depicts harsh working conditions. On a label in the inner edge, is the name Rakhal Chunder Pal of Krishnagar (near Calcutta) who presumably made the model for the Colonial and Indian Exhibition in London in 1886. (Photo: A Paul Little/Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew) Indigo is used to make blue dye. During the 19th century, this dye was very much in demand.

Blood Stains Over Indigo This model of an indigo factory is nearly two metres long, and features 100 clay figures involved in making the indigo dye – from the arrival of the indigo plants from the field on an ox-drawn cart, to the drying of the indigo dye cakes. A European figure supervises the work. The model was made for the Colonial and Indian Exhibition of 1886, which was held in London to “stimulate commerce and strengthen the bonds of union now existing in every portion of her Majesty

The Rani of Jhansi died fighting in 1858. Nana Sahib refused to give in and finally escaped to Nepal in the beginning of 1859, hoping to renew the struggle. There were many reasons why the Revolt failed. British historian John Lawrence confessed that “had a single leader of ability arisen among them, we must have been lost beyond redemption”.ome estimates say that 1,00,000 Indians were slaughtered in the Revolt and its aftermath. But many historians peg the number much higher.

The sword of Bahadur Shah Zafar: The emperor had agreed to lead the 1857 Revolt – but he was captured, his weapons confiscated, his sons killed and he was banished to Burma by the British. (Photos: Raj K Raj; Location: Swatantrata Sangram Sanghralaya, Red Fort, Delhi The British considered the Revolt a “Muslim conspiracy”. But, writes William Dalrymple in The Last Mughal, “The Mughal court was still regarded across northern India not as some sort of foreign Muslim imposition – as some,
