Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan released a book on unsung freedom fighter ‘Saraswati Rajamani -Ek Bhuli Bisri Jasoos’ written by twin sisters.
Twin sisters Devyani and Shivranjani at age of ten have written an illustrated book on the detective Saraswati Rajamani of the Azad Hind Fauj. All its pictures have been made by both the girls together.
Devyani and Shivranjani say ‘At the time when the country is celebrating the Amrit Mahotsav of Independence, we should also remember those people, about whom not much has been written or read, who are our unsung heroes / heroines. Those who have an important contribution in getting freedom, but we are not aware.’
In the year 2021, the first book of these girls ‘Surya Namaskar’ was published and received appreciation from Prime Minister Narendra Modi and ex-President Ram Nath Kovind.
The brief facts of the freedom fighter Saraswati Rajamani was a spy of the Azad Hind Fauj and an anonymous revolutionary at a very young age.
She had greatly influenced Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose and a big threat for the British.
Saraswati Rajamani was born into an affluent and patriotic family in Burma.
When she was 16, she was so impressed by Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose’s speech that she donated all her ornaments to the Azad Hind Fauj.
Netaji could not believe this and went to meet Saraswati Rajamani. Seeing Rajamani’s courage and passion, Netaji made her a part of the army. Rajamani, along with her friend Durga, spied on the British camp and gave much important information to the Azad Hind Fauj.
During this, on many occasions, she showed her valour but could not get respect in her own country.
Devyani and Shivranjani say that Saraswati Rajamani’s life inspires young Indians to realise their dreams with patriotism, dedication, bravery, loyalty, charity and without any fear.
