Kartar SIngh Sarabha Death Anniversary

 Kartar Singh Sarabha (28 October 1887 - 27 March, 1919) was an Indian revolutionary who served as a major in the Ghadar Party and played a prominent role in the Ghadar Mutiny of World War I. 

Sarabha was born in Ludhiana, Punjab, to a Sikh family. His father was a government employee and his mother was a homemaker. He received his primary education at the Khalsa High School in Ludhiana and his secondary education at the DAV College in Lahore. He later studied at the Forman Christian College in Lahore and the University of California, Berkeley in the United States.

Sarabha returned to India in 1913 and joined the Ghadar Party, an organization dedicated to overthrowing British rule in India. He quickly rose through the ranks of the party and became one of its most important leaders.

In November 1914, Sarabha sailed to San Francisco with other Ghadar Party members to begin organizing Indian soldiers in the British Army who were stationed in North America. The plan was to incite these soldiers to mutiny against their British officers when they were deployed to France during World War I.

The Ghadar Mutiny began on February 21, 1915, but it failed due to a lack of coordination between the different groups of soldiers involved. Sarabha and other Ghadar Party leaders were arrested and charged with sedition. Sarabha was sentenced to death  and hanged on March 27, 1919.
