Most people agree that the war of 1857 was the first rebellion of Indians against the occupying British Empire. However, in 2017, the Indian government acknowledged that the Paika Rebellion of 1817 was the actual first rebellion of an occupied India. This article was written to elaborate on the root cause of the rebellion that was the ouster of the King of Khurda Mukund Dev II and the story of his regent and commander in chief Jayi Rajguru, the first martyr in the struggle for an independent nation.
Rajguru is not a surname but a title given to the chief executive officer in the court of the king of Khurda, with him only being subordinate to the king himself. In practice it means he served as the chief adviser to the king as well as the commander in chief of the king’s armies. Many would equate the title of Rajguru to that of the Prime Minister.

Poster Tampering : An Apeal To Safeguard and Uphold JNUs Democratic Ethos! 28.3.11 .
23rd March was the martyrdom day of Rajguru-Sukhdev-Bhagat Singh and Avtar Singh Pash. And on 31st March former JNUSU President Comrade Chandrashekhar was killed on the streets of Siwan. During this week, we reiterate our commit-ment to carry forward the radical legacy of Bhagat Singh, Pash, Chandrashekhar and other revolutionaries. This struggle has become all the more critical in the backdrop of the recent exposuresUPAs shameful capitulations to US imperialism and World Bank-IMF dictated economic policies. .
Interestingly, the SFI chose to commemorate Bhagat Singhs Martyrdom by vandalising the large artistic posters put up in the Academic Complex, marking an unprecedented culture of vandalism in JNU. Such tampering with posters in the .
.
Undermining Our Democratic and Collective Decision-Making Bodies .
An all-organisation meeting was called on March 23rd to discuss the issue. SFI (along with NSUI) chose to boycott the meeting. Not just this, knowing fully well that the matter is going to be discussed democratically in an AO meeting, they continued tampering with the posters despite repeated appeals from various organisations. The March 23rd AO meet-ing tried to address genuine democratic concerns, and it was decided that in future dummy posters would be put up only on or after May 5th. Also, no organisation would monopolise all the available spaces. It is therefore most unfortunate that SFI has refused to heed the decisions taken democratically at the March 23rd AO meeting. .
Next day (March 24th) SFI called for another AO meeting at 9 pm. While most other organisations turned up on time, SFI itself did not come till 10.40 pm for a meeting whose time and venue had been chosen by them! By this time representatives of most organisations had obviously left. When contacted, their leaders informed us that they were watching the cricket match between India and Australia and hence did not come for the meeting!!! Such blatant and shameful disregard for JNUs own democratic, collective decision-making bodies is highly condemnable. It is dangerous for JNUs democratic ethos: Will the JNU student community allow bodies like AO meetings to be jeopardised by the arrogance and callousness of some organisations? .
Was it really impossible for SFI to send just one member to attend the AO meeting of March 23rd? Why did they remain absent from the AO meeting of March 24th which they themselves had called? Left with absolutely no answers to these uncomfortable questions, and when their patent reluctance to discuss and resolve the issue democratically has been exposed, SFI has predictably chosen to spread blatant misinformation. .
According to the SFI, they have done nothing new by vandalising the large posters in the middle of the semester. If SFI were to be believed, AISA monopolised all the spaces for posters in the Academic Complex last year by putting up dummy posters in the first week of April 2010. .
To begin with, SFI and the student community is well aware that this is a blatant lie. Last year, dummy posters were NOT put up in the first week of April 2010; rather they were put up towards the fag end of the semester. Secondly, dummy posters were put up on the very same day by three organisations (AISA, ABVP and DSU). Neither SFI, nor any other organisation raised any objection, and in fact on the very next day, SFI also put up dummy posters! Moreover, if SFI were indeed upset that they had not received enough space for putting up posters last year, would they kindly explain why several dummy posters put up by them last year were not replaced by proper ones (for instance in the SIS Canteen)? Is that also AISAs fault, comrades?! .
In a recent poster, SFI has quoted numbers to try and show that AISA has monopolised spaces for posters. .

British Raj Then , Bush Raj Now - Resist Imperialism !.
.
"We don't wish to suffer by inviting a black evil to replace the white evil. Indian workers must come.
forward - overthrowing imperialists as well as their Indian agents who wish to perpetuate the same.
economic system rooted in exploitation..."- Bhagat Singh, Draft Revolutionary Programme, 1931.
.
India's Prime Minister declared that the British Raj was an instance of "Good Governance", and has also.
rolled out the red carpet for Bush Raj on Indian soil. India's rulers, be they of the NDA or UPA, are allowing.
the US to dictate what our relations with other nations will be, what our farmers will grow...they are selling out.
every aspect of our economy, our lives. We see Jallianwala Bagh repeated by police with the Honda Workers in.
Gurgaon. Hunger and peasant distress have reached the same levels that they did under the British - resulting.
in starvation and suicides of the rural poor and farmers. The deep communal wounds left by the British on our.
polity continue to bleed periodically..
.
Isn't Bhagat Singh's warning of `black evil' replacing and reproducing the `white evil' coming true.
in front of our eyes?.
.
23 March this year marks 75 years of the martyrdom of Bhagat Singh, Rajguru and Sukhdev. The best tribute.
to those martyrs can only be to pledge ourselves to resisting imperialism - not just the Bush Raj of Abu Ghraib.
and Guantanamo Bay, but the Bush Raj sponsored by Manmohan in Gurgaon and Modi in Gandhinagar..
.
- If we fail to identify the `Black Evil' - India's own ruling class;.
.
- if we fail to expose the fact that what it calls `enlightened national interest' is nothing but collaboration with the.
`White Evil'; our homage to these martyrs will be reduced to empty ritual..
.
· What are the deals sealed with Bush on his visit to India?.
.
· Does the `civilian' nuclear deal have invisible military strings attached?.
.
· What will the next step in `enlightened self-interest' be, as defined by Manmohan Singh: Indian troops.
helping the US to police Iraq and invade Iran?.
.
· What rights of our farmers has the UPA Government surrendered to Bush as part of the `Knowledge Initiative.
on Agriculture'?.
.
Faced with these questions, our rulers will reply with lathis and bullets; their apologists will censure and condemn.
us; but ask these questions we must and will, if we, the citizens of the country, wish to salute the memory of.
Bhagat Singh and his comrades..
.
On 23 March, join an Anti-Imperialist Convention, to be addressed by leading writers, intellectuals and activists.
who will speak of the implications of the Bush visit and the aspects of imperialism today..

The great sons of India -Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, Rajguru and many n1ore nurtured the seed offreedom with their own blood. Today, after just over 55 years of independence, we as a nation stand at a crucial juncture. While the den1ocracy has stn1ck deep roots and shows signs of maturing, India today faces the t\VJn threats the unequal and exploitatjve globaltsation and a divisive, exclusivist vision of our society based on hatred and violence. They, unfortunately, are striking at the yery roots of the values and ideals chan1p1oned by the Freedom Struggle.

Box on Iraq Meeting .
Seventy-five years ago, on March 23, three young men, Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev and Rajguru were hanged to death by the British colonial government in India. The national liberation struggle being waged by the trio, and their comrades, was too dangerous, because it lit the fires of longing for liberation, not just from British imperialists, but from the imperialists agents within the Indian ruling class as well. Today, imperialism is on a fresh offensive all over the world Palestine, Afghanistan and Iraq are the outposts of this ever-expanding imperialism. But the national liberation struggles raging on the streets of Palestine and Iraq, as well as the mass upsurges of people in all the continents of the world against imperialist war and economic policies, pose the greatest challenge to imperialism. If young people like Rachel Corrie keep alive Chés legacy of resistance to imperialism across national boundaries, those like Pash and Comrade Chandrashekhar from JNU have held high Bhagat Singhs torch of anti-imperialist nationalism, which struggles for an India free from exploitation. In our own country, the rulers, following the diktats of imperialist powers, intensify their offensive against the toiling poor in the villages and the cities alike. But every time the villagers of Narmada refuse to consent to a model of development that robs them of their rivers and their homes, every time the slum dwellers of Mumbai assert their right to live in the city that survives through their labour, the India of Bhagat Singhs dreams comes alive. Upholding the anti-imperialist legacy of Bhagat Singh, JNUSU invites you to attend a talk tonight on Iraqi peoples struggle against US occupation. We are privileged to have with us Osama Hussein, leader of the Iraqi National Foundation Congress, someone who was jailed in the regime of Saddam Hussein, and who has resisted the US occupation in Iraq. .
Tomorrow, on the occasion of Martyrdom Day of Bhagat Singh and revolutionary poet Avtar Singh Pash, JNUSU invites you to a Public Meeting to be addressed by Medha Patkar, the legendary activist of the Narmada Bachao Andolan (NBA), who is in Delhi to voice the protests of the slum dwellers of Mumbai. (Date: 23 March, Venue: Godavari Mess, Time: 2 pm) .
The Book Bank Facility, achieved after a hunger strike by the JNUSU last year, is soon to come into being from 28 March onwards. Large numbers of textbooks will be available in the TB Section of the library, for students to borrow. Students are requested to get their respective Centres to requisition all the texts that are needed, so that they can be made available in the centralised Book Bank. .

Today the Supreme Courtpushed the Lyngdoh matter to a constitution bench and hencepushed thefate of JNU election to an uncertain future! The illegal JNTJSU ensured that there must not be any election as they can enjoy the power without getting elected. JNU student witnessed NO ELECTION FOR THE YEAR 2008 and 2009. Cowards ations like the ABVP, NSUI and SFI also supported AISA in AISA~s inhouse intrigues on that fateful day of .
student asso~i , ·.
24t:: October 2008 P.t the SLipreme Court. 'We don't war.t election in JNU (with Lyngdoh recommendations)', said the ')ISA and its supporters SFI, ABVP and NSU1 on 24th October 2008 at the Supreme Court! · .
At that time it was only AISA and YFE, who were aware ofthe fact that, AISA can be glued to the power even .
without zn election. .
AlSA deceived ~II other stooge student bodies-who never had a mind oftheir own-to support its stand. .
.
Jhe Supreme Court UNHAPPY WITH THEMand ordered a STAY ON JNUSU ELECTION! .
Youth For Equality knew the design ofAISA and hence intervened through its learned lawyer M.L. Lahoty at the Supreme Court on 24th October 2008 and requested the Supreme Court to RECONSIDER THE STAY ORDER. .
YFE submitted its approval at the court for an election with Lyngdoh recommendation in JNU. By that time all .
other universities ofIndia had implemented the Lyngdoh recommendations! -_ .
The Judges saw merit in the YFE argument and lifted the blanket stay but put a conditio113l stay-"there is no stay -on JNUSU electio~ ifthey implement Lyngdoh Comn1ittee recommendations", ordered the Supreme Court! .
There was much hue and cry in JNU_aboutYFE's stand at that time. Burtime has proved who was right and why!_ YFE's worst fear comes true and AISA ruling JNUSU illegally for two years without an election! Mur.h to the damage of the student community, the AISA Jed illegal JNUSU denied any official entry in JNU administration. So there is no voice .
of-students at the JNU administration for two years. The students-can go and represent themselves through JNJ]SU election with Lyngdoh Committee r~commendation but the AISA is never allowing anybody to take that place. Illegally occupying JNUSU, the disgraced AISA compared their act with that ofthe great Rajguru, Bhagat Singh, Azad and Asfaq. .
-·How rotten their thought that they had objected to the surnames ofthose great martyrs in the past. Everything they opted .
was to justify their occupation ofJNUSUillegally. The JNU students now left unrepresented fo: two precious years and great chance for the newcomer of JNU .
students to take part in democratic process and learn the price of vote was lost due to the disrespect of politically .
sponsored student bodies in JNU. Communists inside the campus sent a message to the JNU community th~ they are Cruelly Kind to the aspjration .

ofthe students! .
They said that they are making their movement for JNUSU election hastily slow! .
.
AISA told that they are impatiently patient for election! .
But like the above sentences-Communist and Election are Oxymoron-even a newborn can say! .
They don't want election! Ifthey want, not impartial, but on their own terms! Caged all other opponents and fight .
the election and win it, that was _all happening in JNU till 2007, J~hen Supreme Court asked to make the battle field level for all players with a Lyogdoh Committee Recommendations! The edge of t~e communists lost so was the chance of winning another election! Paranoid with the prospect of a _defeat, the communists staged a drama with a cry that 'JNU is different hence no rule of India is-applied to JNU'! Strangely, other thoughtless political student bodies like SFI, AByP 's performance in 2006 and 2007 student union . .
and NSUI supported the stand of-AISA.-Perhaps they were scared ofYFE.

killed the democratic method, reform in student union election at one go. -Collectively, they pushed-the JNUSU election roan unending spiral ofcourt heartngs!The Illegal JNUSU .
Ensured That There Must Not Be Any Election In JNU! .
.
The judges refused to hear anything on JNU election or JNU specific concession. And why should tf!ey hear when .
-the matter is related to all universities across India? Shall we ever rush to the UGC seeking special privileges just because the communists want to protect their communist culture in JNC? ·· The moral ofthe story_is if we follow the-communists-they can only lead us to the hole ofA!ice in Wonderland.-_ very exciting till one confront with the reality. And the reality ic: there is no election ifyou fo llow others. But we can-hold election without any delay if we follow Youth For Equaliry. .

tide in workers struggles, rapid spread of WPPs, (see below) the revival of mass anti-imperialist movement provoked by the Simon Commission, the revolutionary activities of Bhagat singh and his comrades, and the coming closer of communists and a section of the nationalist leadership, the government struck back in 1929 with a chain of repressive measures. Most important among these were: the Meerut conspiracy case, the Public Safety Bill and Trade Disputes Bill, and the prosecution of and death sentences to Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev and Rajguru. In March 1929, 31 labour leaders (including 3 Englishmen) from Calcutta, Bombay, and other parts of the country were rounded up. They were brought to Meerut for the conspiracy case. The accused communists made very good use of the courtroom for the spread of their ideology, aims and objectives. The British move to drive a wedge between communists and nationalist leaders also proved futile. Nehru, Gandhi and many others visited the Meerut jail while the accused communists also sent messages to the satyagrahis in different jails supporting their just struggles for political status. From the dock communists vigorously exposed the bankruptcy and hypocrisy of British rule in India and their civilised legal system. Not only did workers all over the world launch agitations against the trial and conviction, even men like Romain Rolland and Prof. Albert Einstein raised their voices in protest against the trial. .
The Workers and Peasants Party (WPP), a sort of peoples party, was organised jointly by communists and other revolutionary democrats and utilised by the former as a means of circumventing police restrictions on communist activities and as a united front organ. It sprang up in different provinces under different names, but generally as left blocks within the Congress. The different provincial WPPs were brought under a common platform and common name and knit into an all-India party in 1928. The party witnessed very rapid expansion. But all propaganda and agitation began to be conducted in the name of WPP. For all practical purposes the communist party was becoming an appendage of its own creation the WPP and, in the process, getting politically assimilated in the Congress. The need of the hour was to fight out this liquidationist danger, re-.

Namaskar..

I was not surprised to read your comments in newspapers that it was not necessary to be a.
secular person to occupy the office of Prime Minister in a Democratic-Secular India. As per.
the press reports you wondered why a Hindutva-vadi could not become PM of India. I am.
sure you understand better than me that being a Hindutva-vadi is not the same as professing.
Hindu religion. Our national leaders like Mahatma Gandhi, Sardar Patel, Jawaharlal Nehru,.
Subhashchander Bose, Rammanohar Lohia, Rajguru, Sukhdev and many-many more were.
Hindu by faith but not Hindutva-vadi. In fact, Mahatma Gandhi, a great practitioner of Hind.
religion, was brutally assassinated for not being a Hindutva-vadi by a gang having allegiance.
to Hindu Mahasabha and RSS..
.
Surely, by Hindutva-vadi you mean a believer in Hindutva, a kind of political Hinduism,.
outlined by Vinayak Damodar Savarkar ji in his book Hindutva and later developed by RSS.
ideologues like M. S. Golwalkar. You will agree with me that RSS, under your command.
currently, has been a prominent flag-bearer of Hindutva since its inception in 1925..
.
I feel before arriving at the conclusion that there is no harm in allowing person/s who.
believes in Hindutva to become PM of India we will have to understand what Hindutva is..
You will agree with me that we need to understand whether Hindutva is compatible with.
principles of Democracy, Justice, Egalitarianism & Secularism. In this connection, please,.
allow me to scrutinize some of the original documents and sources which legitimately belong.
to the RSS or its brother organizations like Hindu Mahasabha. If you find that I am dishonest.
in referring to these or misrepresenting facts, you will be at liberty to initiate defamation.
process against me..
