On September 28, Naujawan Bharat Sabha and Stree Mukti League jointly organized the “Kaafila-e-Inquilab” rally in Sathe Nagar and Lallubhai Compound, Mumbai. The program was the culmination of a 5-day continuous campaign – the “Shaheed Bhagat Singh Smriti Sankalp Abhiyan” – in different areas of Govandi-Mankhurd, meant to take Bhagat Singh’s life and work to the working masses in different slum settlements of Mumbai. Cultural programs, posters, placards, revolutionary songs, rap, street plays, pamphlets, speeches, and exibition of revolutionary literature were among the different forms used during the program to take the legacy of Shaheed Bhagat Singh’s ideas from door to door. On the last day of the rally, posters containing Bhagat Singh’s quotes and appeals to join the “Kafila-e-Inquilab” rally were pasted in every basti of the area. On the day of the rally, a big banner was put up at Samvidhan Chowk which quoted from Bhagat Singh’s article “Communal Riots and their Solution” calling upon the working people to unite on the basis of their class consciousness, leaving aside their caste and religious differences. Along with this, a poster exhibition on the life and thoughts of Bhagat Singh, and a book stall by Janchetna was also set up. The cultural program included music, performance of revolutionary songs, rap songs, and a street play – Safdar Hashmi’s “Desh Ko Aage Badhao”. The rally received an enthusiastic response in all areas. Many people participated in the rally, took pamphlets, were able to appreciate that the thoughts of Bhagat Singh and his comrades were as relevant today as they were a hundred years ago, and expressed their desire to participate in different programs of Naujawan Bharat Sabha and Stree Mukti League. Many people volunteered financial contributions and appreciated the work being carried out by Naujawan Bharat Sabha and Stree Mukti League.
