Explain the fierce revolutionary movements in Gujarat.

Accepted Answer

Sri Aurobindo Ghosh prepared the stage for the armed revolution in Gujarat for the first time, but he remained behind the curtain. His brother Baarindrakumar Ghosh came to the forefront of the national movement in $1902$ .

He came to Gujarat and went to the southern part where he met Shri Chotubhai and Shri Ambubhai Purani. They became his companions. Sakaria Swami was associated with the Rani Laxmibai during the Great Revolt. He met with the Barindra Kumar Ghosh on the bank of Narmada.

At that time, some middle-class youth from Vadodara, Charotar region of Ahmedabad, Mehsana were involved with him in these revolutionary activities. The revolutionaries bombed at the buggy of Viceroy Minto outside Raipur Darwaja in Ahmedabad.

Sri Aurobindo Ghosh wrote a book named Bhavani Mandir where he described the scheme for revolution. This book was also translated into Gujarati and published in the journal Dakshina. To spread the thought of revolution some booklets were also published.

They gave the titles like 'Deshi Vanaspati Davao',' Nahavana Sabu Banavvani Reet',' Kasraat'n,'Gulab no Kisso',' Kayada no Sangrah' etc. so that Britishers won't understand. The methods of preparing bombs were contained in these booklets. 'Ganganath Vidyalaya' was a secret revolutionary society was established near Chandod -Karnali.
