INTRODUCTION
We all know the father of our nation and the leader of
the Indian struggle for independence was
Mahatma Gandhi. It was his resilience and
undeniable support of the masses he enjoyed that
really made an impact in this struggle. He had a
unique non-violent way to protest the British that
was very effective.India’s Struggle for
IndependenceThe late nineteenth century saw the
emergence of Indian nationalism. Indians felt like
one and they tried to overthrow the foreign rule. This
led to the Indian freedom struggle and finally
independence.
INDIAN FREEDOM FIGHTERS
Behind the ceremony of Independence,15th of August 1947,
there is a violent and disordered history of furious rebellions,
fights, and activities carried out by thousands of enthusiastic
Indian freedom fighters to free India from British rule. Many
of India’s freedom fighters fought, suffered, and died.
The Indian freedom fighters did not only play an essential
part in the country’s independence, but they also left a legacy
of daring, unwavering resolve, and steadfast devotion to the
country. They inspire millions to fight and preserve our
precious freedom, even after their death.

Students Reflection
I learned a lot through this project, despite the main
challenge, which was the time that was set; I am glad that
everything worked out.
Doing this research gave me the opportunity to get insight
into a subject that I was not familiar with it. I can
honestly say that I am pretty surprised from the findings.
I knew that English somehow affects our personality, but
I did not think it affects our mood, activity, and even our
emotions. It amazes me that people listen to English
language everyday, and they aren't even aware of what It
causes.
Some of the articles, we found, examined subjects that led
to varied opinions. I absolutely can say that it was alot of
fun to work as a team, and see my teammates' various
opinions.
Overall, I am glad that have we have chosen this subject.
Indeed, I discovered new things and it gave me a clear
view about freedom fighters .
