As a child he witnessed numerous atrocities committed on fellow Indians by their British rulers, who came to trade under the guise of the East India Company, but ended up controlling most of the nation, and permitting tyrants such as General Dyer to massacre thousands of innocent men, women and children in Jallianwala Baug.

When Lala Lajpat Rai was beaten to death by the police, Bhagat, along with Shivram Rajguru, Sukhdev, and others daringly carried out the assassination of a police officer named Saunders

But being a revolutionary was in Bhagats blood, and when the British proposed the Trade Disputes and Public Safety Bills, he would initiate the bombing in the Indian Parliament Building, along with Batukeshwar Dutt, be arrested, and tried in an open court. This is where Bhagat launched his much-publicized revolution, and became popular with the masses, especially the younger generation, laborers, and farmers, so much so that his popularity rivaled that of Gandhi himself.

Then the British re-opened the Saunders murder case, which led to death sentences being imposed on Bhagat, Shivram, and Sukhdev. Now, as the Irwin's Pact was to be signed by Gandhi, so he had the ball in his court, to save Bhagat, and other revolutionaries. To pave the way for a modern and independent India, - an India free of communal hatred, injustice, corruption, and fundamentalism, so will Gandhi put the release of Bhagat Singh on scale or not.
