  • Kakori Conspiracy is also known as Kakori Kand, Kakori Conspiracy Case or The Kakori Train Robbery.
  • It was an armed robbery that took place on August 9, 1925, on a train in central Uttar Pradesh.
  • The robbery occurred at the town of Kakori, about 16 km from Lucknow which was where the train was headed.
  • The objectives of the Kakori Kand/Conspiracy were to:
    • Gain funds for the HRA by taking money from the British Administration through force.
    • Create a positive image of the HRA among Indians by attacking a high-profile British government target with minimum collateral damage.
  • The robbery was planned by Ram Prasad Bismil and Ashfaqullah Khan.
  • It was executed by Bismil, Khan, Chandrashekhar Azad, Rajendra Lahiri, Shachindra Bakshi, Keshab Chakravarty, Murari Lal Khanna(Gupta), Banwari Lal, Mukundi Lal Gupta and Manmathnath Gupta. 
  • Though no passengers were targeted by the revolutionaries, one passenger named Ahmed Ali was killed in the crossfire between the guards and revolutionaries.
  • This made it a manslaughter case.
  • The final verdict of the Kakori Kand was pronounced in July 1927. Around 15 people were let off by the court for lack of evidence. Death sentences were awarded to:
    • Ram Prasad Bismil
    • Ashfaqullah Khan
    • Thakur Roshan Singh
    • Rajendra Lahiri
