About this ebook

In lieu of the rising political consciousness and opposition to British Raj in Bengal in the late nineteenth century, by 1902, Kolkata (erstwhile Calcutta) saw the emergence of secret societies that aimed at a violent overthrow of British rule in India, of which Aurobindo Ghose and his brother Brindra Kumar Ghose were among the strongest proponents, leading the youth of Bengal.

On 30 April 1908, two teenage revolutionaries—Khudiram Bose and Prafulla Chaki—hurled a bomb at a carriage in Muzaffarpur, Bihar, in an attempt to assassinate Douglas Kingsford, who had gained notoriety among Bengali nationalists. Forty-nine were accused and 206 witnesses appeared in court, and young lawyer, Chittaranjan Das, who would later become a major figure in the independence movement, appeared for the defence.

The judgment was finally delivered by Judge Beachcroft on 6 May 1909, and the case came to be recorded as one of the most sensational trials in the history of Indian independence movement!

The Alipore Bomb Case: A Historic Pre-Independence Trial by Noorul Hoda accounts the same, and the contribution of intellectual revolutionaries like Aurobindo Ghose and his brother, as well as stalwarts like Bal Gangadhar Tilak, in the nationalist struggle of a colonised India aspiring complete freedom from the oppressive British rule.
