Consistently, three discharges were shot at 73-year-old Mantangini Hazra and with every gunfire, her voice reciting 'Vande Matram' got stronger and the banner that she grasped went higher. Such was the mental fortitude and assurance of the dauntless political dissident, Mantangini Hazra. 

At whatever point I read about such uncommon individuals and their accounts of courage, my heart swells with satisfaction and appreciation. It was because of their tireless and valorous endeavors that our nation got independence from the uncalled for British standard.

Naturally introduced to a helpless laborer family in a little town, Tamluk in West Bengal's Midnapore region, Matangini's life saw many high points and low points. She was unable to get any proper instruction, was constrained into kid marriage at an early age and turned into a widow when she was only 18 years of age. After her better half's death, she moved back to her local town and began helping individuals in trouble.

Those days the breezes of opportunity started to clear the country over. Matangini was drawn towards the opportunity battle and effectively partook in various fights around there. Incredibly motivated by Mahatma Gandhi, she began turning yarn notwithstanding her feeble vision and wore khadi garments, aside from strictly following his lessons. Individuals affectionately began calling her Gandhi Buri (Old Lady Gandhi) for her commitment towards Gandhian standards.

Matangini used to lead colossal parades and effectively took an interest in the Quit India and Non-participation developments.

During the Salt Satyagrah, she covertly got into the premises of Tamluk Court without stimulating doubt of the police guarding the structure and raised the public banner. She was ultimately gotten and captured by the police. Her dynamic interest in various fights prompted her capture on numerous events, however the police used to in the long run discharge her, remembering her mature age.

Notwithstanding, rehashed captures didn't dissuade, however just reinforced her purpose to battle for the opportunity of the country. Not long after her delivery, she used to take an interest in a new dissent. Now and again, she was likewise harmed during those fights. Nothing influenced her assurance and each opportunity she returned more grounded than any time in recent memory.

Mantangini Hazra showed valiance till her final gasp. On September 29, 1942, she drove a parade of around 6000 allies towards Tamluk police headquarters. As she flooded forward, the police took shots at her. Yet, the shot didn't prevent her from pushing forward. She was again taken shots at, however she didn't stop and raised her voice saying 'Vande Matram'. She held the banner high up as she was shot at for the third time. She at long last capitulated to her wounds and passed on with the banner in her grasp.

She was genuinely a lady of incredible fortitude, unequaled bravery and coarseness. She had roused numerous others to emulate her example in the battle contrary to British guideline in India. Matangini Hazra like numerous other political dissidents forfeited her life for the country.

The narratives of extraordinary people, who forfeited everything and took dynamic part in the opportunity battle ought to be remembered for our set of experiences reading material with the goal that individuals, especially the more youthful age think about these incredible individuals.
