By Rudrangshu Mukherjee

On a sleepy Sunday afternoon in March 1857, an agitated sepoy in the England East India Company’s 34th Native Infantry marched on to the parade ground in Barrackpore, exhorting his comrades to join him in protecting their religion from the Europeans. When British officers arrived to arrest him, he drew his sword on them and then turned his musket on himself. As he was led off to gallows a few days later Mangal Pandey passed into history and legend as the man who single handedly started the 1857 Rising.
