               A REPORT ON BATUKESWAR DUTT 



New Delhi : Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's 2006 masterpiece Rang De Basanti that came to be represented for its profound message, representation and creativity that weaved India's colonial past with the 21st century seamlessly shows the story of revolutionary freedom fighters like CHANDRA SHEKHAR AZAD, BHAGAT SINGH RAMPRASAD BISMIL.

                                             



   But like many representation of that time and struggle this too forgets BATUKESHWAR DUTT a revolutionary and close associate of SINGH and AZAD who failed to be remembered a hero "simply because he made it through the freedom struggle alive" was released from the Andaman Jail where he had continued his fight for the right of prisoners against in humane treatment in connection with the legislative assembly attack.

                                         



  DUTT's desire for revolutionary activism was spaked when he witnessed the British beat an Indian child for standing on a road they were not supposed to both Dutt and BHAGAT SINGH DUTT emerged alive as India became Independent and partitioned and then unfortunately began his downfall.
