Sindhura Lakshmana was a remarkable leader who fought against the British. Sindhura village was under the firm hold of the local Inamdar (Gowda). Lakshmana openly challenged him. Soon he became the enemy of the British.
Lakshmana was plundering money from the rich and the British treasury, and distributor it to the poor. He was also helping the oppressed. Meanwhile the village assembly accussed him of robbery. Greatly hurt, Lakshmana went into hiding.
The British tried their best to capture him on charge of murdering a police officer. Later, in an encounter he was shot dead. A martyr, Sindhura Lakshmana will be ever remembered in history as a revolutionary who passionately fought for freedom.
