Swatantrayaveer Vinayak Damodar Savarkar was a great Indian revolutionary and a politico-military strategist, who tried to build India militarily in order to drive out the British.
The word, ‘Savarkar’ is synonymous with courage, bravery, might and patriotism. Inscribed on golden pages of revolutionary history, freedom fighter Savarkar’s overall personality was full of matchless qualities—a revolutionary who put his life at stake for liberating his motherland; a visionary who raised his voice against social evils, such as casteism, untouchability and superstition; a karmayogi who followed the principles of the Gita in his life; a philosopher who suffered atrocities at the Cellular Jail of Andaman with forbearance while experiencing pulsation of the ageless and endless divine soul inside him; an orator who shook and left his audience spellbound with his fiery thoughts. Freedom-fighter Veer Savarkar was a gifted writer who wrote high-quality poems, novels, stories, biographies, history, essays etc. in an engaging and convincing style.
It is rarely seen that a person engaged in the freedom struggle and social reforms is an excellent author as well, and Savarkar is a living example of such rarity.
