On Sunday, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath honored the birth anniversary of revolutionary Rajendra Nath Lahiri, reflecting on his pivotal role in the historic Kakori train conspiracy—an indelible mark on India's journey towards freedom.
Lahiri, alongside Pandit Ram Prasad Bismil and others, executed the Kakori action in 1925 to arm themselves against British oppression, a bold move at the time.
