The Punjab has always shielded the onslaught of various invaders who invaded India on numerous occasions. During First World War several Punjabis being military personnel happed to visit foreign countries. They had to bear the brunt of humiliation and insult from Britishers and other foreigners. Those who had migrated to U.S.A. and Canada in search of their livelihood had to face great insult and inhuman behaviour. The sturdy Punjabis refused to digest and tolerate this national insult and consequently formed Ghadr Party in San Francisco. Through Ghgadr Party, Ghadri Babas, showed their worth and drew the attention of the world community towards the financial looting of British Raj. Komagata Maru episode shook the roots of the Raj in India. Numberless Ghadri Babas laid down their lives to awaken the Indian masses which were mercilessly suppressed with iron boots of British imperialism. The Jallianwala Bagh and Nankana Tragedies, Guru-ka-Bagh Morcha, Jaito Morcha, Babar Akali movement had proved that the Punjabis can sacrifice their lives for the sake of their Motherland, and their contribution in the Non-Cooperation Movement, civil Disobedience Movement, Simon Commission Boycott, Individual Satyagraha, Quit India Movement, INA and Revolutionary Movement has been recorded with golden words in the pages of history. This set is an attempt to highlight the sufferings and sacrifices of the Punjabis with a comprehensive history of Freedom Movement from 1857-1947.
