Durgavati Devi (7 October 1907 – 15 October 1999), popularly known as Durga Bhabhi, was an Indian revolutionary and freedom fighter. She was one of the few women revolutionaries who actively participated in armed revolution against the ruling British Raj. She is best known for having accompanied Bhagat Singh on the train journey in which he made his escape in disguise after the killing of John P. Saunders. Since she was the wife of another Hindustan Socialist Republican Association (HSRA) member Bhagwati Charan Vohra, other members of HSRA referred to her as Bhabhi (elder brother's wife) and became popular as "Durga Bhabhi" in Indian revolutionary circles.

Dear Prime Minister Only ensure that our great freedom fighters are not pitted against each other on the name of ideological and petty political differences. You cant admire and follow Mahatma Gandhi and praise Nathuram Godse.

देश के कई स्वतंत्रता सेनानियों का नाम संपूर्ण भारतवर्ष जानता है। लेकिन कुछ ऐसे भी स्वतंत्रता सेनानियों के नाम है जो कि इतिहास के पन्नों में दब के रह गए। सुभाष चन्द्र बोस, महात्मा गांधी, भगत सिंह, पंडित जवाहर लाल नेहरू जैसे स्वतंत्रता सेनानियों के बलिदान को सर्वत्र माना जाता है। कुछ ऐसे स्वतंत्रता सेनानियों के नाम जो इतिहास के पन्नों में अपना नाम दर्ज किए बिना ही देश के लिए अमर हो गए। उन लोगों के बारे में भारतवर्ष को जानना बहुत ही जरूरी है जिनका त्याग और तपस्या से देश को स्वतंत्रता मिली ।
