Ram Prasad Bismil (1897-1927) was a prominent Indian revolutionary, poet, and freedom fighter who played a key role in India's struggle for independence. Born in Shahjahanpur, Uttar Pradesh, he was one of the founders of the Hindustan Republican Association (HRA) and is best known for his involvement in the Kakori Conspiracy Case (1925), where he and his comrades looted a British government train to fund the revolutionary movement.
Bismil was also a talented poet who wrote patriotic verses in Hindi and Urdu under the pen name "Bismil".
Captured by the British, he was sentenced to death and hanged on December 19, 1927, in Gorakhpur Jail. His sacrifice remains an inspiration in India's freedom movement.
