Sisters and Brothers:
As I stand before you to-day, a sense of overwhelming loss overtakes me, and I can scarce give expression to what is uppermost in the minds of all and everyone of us. After a memorable battle which he gave to the Bureaucracy, Mahatma Gandhi has been seized and cast into prison; and we shall not have his guidance in the proceedings of the Congress this year. But there is inspiration for all of us in the last stand which he made in the citadel of the enemy, in the last defiance which he hurled at the agents of the Bureaucracy. To read a story equal in pathos, in dignity, and in sublimity you have to go back over two thousand years, when Jesus of Nazareth, “as one that perverted the people” stood to take his trial before a foreign tribunal.

Autorenporträt
Chitta Ranjan Das (1870-1925) was a prominent Indian leader and writer who played a crucial role in the Indian independence movement. Known for his fervent nationalism and advocacy for political reform, Das was a key figure in the early 20th-century struggle against British colonial rule. His contributions spanned both political and social spheres, reflecting his commitment to India's self-governance and national identity. Das was a leading member of the Indian National Congress and was deeply involved in efforts to promote Indian self-rule. His writings and speeches were influential in mobilizing public opinion and rallying support for the independence movement. India for Indians, one of his notable works, articulates his vision for a free and self-reliant India, emphasizing the need for national unity and political reform. In addition to his political work, Das was also known for his role in social reform, advocating for improvements in education and the upliftment of marginalized communities. His legacy is marked by his dedication to India's independence and his efforts to foster a sense of national pride and self-determination.
