Unsung Heroes is an effort to recall and remember forgotten heroes of our freedom struggle, many of whom could be renowned yet unknown to the new generation. The aim of recreating and bringing forth stories, which lay as faded memories of the past, shall function a medium of inspiration and encouragement for the approaching generations. India 2.0 isn't almost fueling the spirit of India in anybody particular paradigm of growth. It encompasses all spheres of life, most of all by enriching our hearts and souls. The spirit of India is incomplete whilst we take our unsung heroes along this journey of growth and development. Their ethos and principles need to be recalled and revered .
