About Ram Prasad Bismil
Ram Prasad Bismil was an Indian poet, writer, and revolutionary who fought against British Raj, participating in the Mainpuri Conspiracy of 1918, and the Kakori Conspiracy of 1925. He composed in Urdu and Hindi under pen names Ram, Agyat अज्ञात (anonymous) and Bismil (wounded), becoming widely known under the latter. "Bismil" was not his real surname; it was his pen name. Pandit was an honorific title conferred to him due to his specialised knowledge on several subjects. He was also a translator. The people of U.P. were so much influenced by the furious speeches and verses of Bismil that they became hostile against British Raj. Bismil's body was taken to the Rapti river for a Hindu cremation, and the site became known as Rajghat.
