Challenging the British power, Bhagat Singh and Batukeshwar Dutt threw a bomb on the vacant government benches in the Central Assembly Hall in Delhi on 8th April 1929, when Vithalbhai Patel was speaking on the ‘Public Safety Bill,’ on the election day. Terror spread in the Assembly Hall due to bomb – explosion. After this incident, both the revolutionaries stood in the assembly hall and raised the slogans ‘Inqalab Zindabad’ and imperialism should be demolished’.
They distributed some pamphlets on behalf of the ‘Hindustan Socialist Republican Army’. These pamphlets read, “To carry our voice to the deaf ears.” Their purpose of throwing the bomb was not intended to harm anyone but they wanted to rouse up the cruel British rule. After this, Bhagat Singh and Batukeshwar Dutt surrendered themselves to the British Police.
