A VERY GOOD MORNING TO ALL.

INDIA, , OUR MOTHER NATION , a


glorious nation with an history worth admiring. Today on this special occasion
just a few days after the 74th REPUBLIC DAY, I would like to present an
opportunity for u all to know about some unsung heroes of the INDIAN
FREEDOM STRUGGLE who usually go unpraised and do not get the respect
they deserve.

Tiruppur Kumaran, also known as Kodi Kaatha Kumaran, Kumaran, or


Kumarasamy Mudaliyar, was an Indian freedom fighter and revolutionary who
participated in the movement for Indian independence. He was born on October
4, 1904. Kumarasamy Mudaliyar was born in Chennimalai, in the Madras
Presidency of British India. On January 11, 1932, he died from injuries he
sustained during a police onslaught on the banks of the Noyyal River in
Tiruppur while taking part in a protest march against the British government.

Peer Ali Khan was born in Muhammadpur, which lies in the Azamgarh district
of Uttar Pradesh. At the age of seven, he ran away from his former home and
arrived in Patna, where he found shelter and refuge from a landlord. Peer was
brought up and educated by the zamindar, and he later took part in the 1857
rebellion against the Britishers. When Ali was plotting against the British with
the soldiers belonging to Danapur Cantonment, two letters were misplaced and
got into British hands, and the Britishers became aware of the involvement of
Peer Ali. Ali and his 33 followers were arrested on the 4th of July, 1857. Most
of the followers were hanged to death the very next day without having a
hearing, while Peer Ali was ruthlessly tortured and cross-questioned. He was
also hanged on July 7.
