Bhagat Singh, Jatindranath Das, and Ajoy Ghosh were among the key figures involved in the formation of the Hindustan Socialist Republican Association (HSRA) in September 1928.
– The Hindustan Republican Association (HRA) was reorganized and renamed as the Hindustan Socialist Republican Association (HSRA) in September 1928 at a meeting in Feroz Shah Kotla ground in Delhi.
– Key revolutionaries present at this meeting and considered founder members included Chandrasekhar Azad (who became the leader), Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, Rajguru, Shiv Verma, Bijoy Kumar Sinha, Jaidev Kapoor, Ajoy Ghosh, and potentially others like Jatindra Nath Das, who was closely associated and involved in early activities.
– Phanindranath Ghosh was a member of the HSRA but later turned approver in the Lahore Conspiracy Case, which led to the conviction and execution of Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, and Rajguru. While he was a member, his status as a ‘founder member’ is less certain or emphasized compared to figures like Bhagat Singh, Azad, or Ajoy Ghosh.
– Jatindra Nath Das became famous for his hunger strike in Lahore Jail demanding better conditions for political prisoners, leading to his death in September 1929. He was involved with the organization around the time of its formation.
