Abstract:
Without acknowledging the role played by women, the history of the Indian Freedom Struggle would be lacking. The sacrifices made by Indian women will take center stage. To gain our independence, they endured several forms of torture, abuse, and adversity while fighting with unwavering bravery and passion. Women took the lead in the fight when the majority of the male freedom fighters were imprisoned. There is a lengthy list of outstanding women whose names have been recorded in history due to their unwavering commitment to serving India. Women first took part in the Indian independence movement in 1817. In guerrilla warfare, Bhima Bai Holkar valiantly battled and beat British colonel Malcolm. In the 19th century, thirty years prior to the "First War of Independence 1857," a number of women, like Rani Channama fought against the British East India Company. Women's contributions to the 1857 War of Independence (also known as the Great Revolt) were admirable and won the respect of the Revolt's commanders. Daringly leading their forces into war were the Rani of Ramgarh, Rani Jindan Kaur, Rani Tace Bai, Baiza Bai, Chauhan Rani, and Tapasvini Maharani. Jhansi's Rani Lakshmi Bai, whose bravery and exceptional leadership set a remarkable example of true patriotism. Indian women from all walks of life, castes, sects, and groups, as well as those from rural regions, came from liberal and educated homes and joined the national movement. The names of Sarojini Naidu, Kasturba Gandhi, Vijayalakmi Pundit, and Annie Besant from the 20th century are still known today for their exceptional contributions to politics and the battlefield.
