– Swami Ramananda Tirtha (born Venkatesh Bhagwan Khedgikar) was a prominent Indian freedom fighter, educator, and social activist.
– He is considered the architect of the freedom movement in the Hyderabad state.
– He founded the Hyderabad State Congress in 1938 and led the struggle for the integration of Hyderabad with the Indian Union after India’s independence, opposing the Nizam’s reluctance to accede.
