contribution to the state's growth. He defied British rule and was an outspoken
opponent of wage slavery and capitalism. He was an ardent participant in the
liberation and freedom struggle. His life and energies were dedicated to the
cause of independence. His goals were always centered on societal freedom from
deprivation, poverty, and corruption.

Communist Party of India's (RCPI) armed revolutionary campaign. This kind of
engagement was aimed at achieving independence from the British Empire and the
wrath of the local lords. When he bestowed his ancestral property of roughly
2500 bighas of land on the peasants, it was clear that he was a remarkable man.
His financial situation deteriorated dramatically, and he was unable to afford
therapy for his wife, Kanaklata, who died as a result of her sickness. However,
this did not deter him from assisting his people and devoting his entire life
to their growth.
