Durgawati Devi
Durgavati Devi (Durga Bhabhi) (7 October 1907 – 15 October 1999) was an Indian revolutionary and a freedom fighter. She was one of the few women revolutionaries who took an active participation 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 Saunders killing, Since she was wife of another HSRA member Bhagwati Charan Vohra, other members of HSRA referred her as 'Bhabhi' (elder brother's wife) and became popular as "Durga Bhabhi" in Indian revolutionary circles. Durga was a Bengali and her mother tongue was Bengali.
==Life==
Durgavati Devi, originally a Bengali, was married to Bhagwati Charan Vohra when she was aged eleven.
An active member of the Naujawan Bharat Sabha, Durga came into prominence when the Sabha decided to observe the 11th anniversary of Kartar Singh Sarabha’s martyrdom on 16 November 1926 at Lahore. Her most glorious moment came on 19 December 1928 when Bhagat Singh and Sukhdev Thapar went to her house two days after killing Saunders.
She led the funeral procession of Jatindra Nath Das from Lahore to Calcutta after his death in the 63-day jail hunger strike. All along the way, huge crowds joined the funeral procession.〔
