India is a country which has been subjected to foreign invasions since the dawn of Indian history. The fertile plains of India have been attracting avaricious tribals from all over the world. Long back the Aryans from Central Asia invaded India and settled down permanently in this beautiful land where food and fodder were available in plenty. After a chain of invasions from the bordering countries through land routes, the European nations, including the British, finally came to India to exploit her rich resources. The Englishmen came to India as traders but stealthily became her masters. India became the 'brightest Jewel' in the British diadem. They proclaimed to civilise her and started to exploit her. Neither the imperialist might, nor the treachery of some of her sons, nor the treachery of some of her sons, nor the nerve-racking exploitation could curb the indomitable urge for freedom of the people who bid defiance to time. They fought and fought heroically; they never submitted. Their struggle for independence is an inspiring and exhilarating story. It is a story not only of firm determination and will but also of sacrifice and suffering, a story of heryism and courage that happens in all revolutionaries.
