Event Description : BOOK LAUNCH : Bhagat Singh's Jail Note Book by Harish Jain.

The great martyr wrote a note book in Lahore Central Jail while he was being tried for Lahore Conspiracy and Saunders’s murder. This note book remained hidden from public view for more than half a century. Now Harish Jain with Malwinder Jit Singh Waraich has produced a commendable volume of this notebook which contains the notes taken by Bhagat Singh from various books he was reading in the jail. He could get these books with great difficulty as the British Government was not allowing such books in the jail. The note book reveals that the revolutionary martyr not only wielded pistol and bomb but was a great scholar and intellectual of great merit. The note book tells his vast range of reading and his world of books. Harish Jain has painstakingly edited the note book and has traced the original sources of all the notes the martyr jotted down in the jail. The note book has been aesthetically produced in a large format and reproduces the notes in Bhagat Singh’s beautiful and very impressive handwriting. Great authors and thinkers like Rousseau, Dostoevsky, Dickens, Russell, Bernard Shaw, Jack London, Upton Sinclair, Thomas Paine, Khyyam, Chirol, Marxist greats like Marx, Engels, Lenin, Trotsky, Indian writers like Tagore, Lajpat Rai, Savarkar and legal minds like John Salmond are all there in the notebook for the reader to explore. The book is a treasure trove for every Bhagat Singh lover as it helps to understand his mind and thinking and also his greatness. This Book in every manner is collectible which every person will like to keep on his/her bookshelf for generations to come.
