S1 E8 Durgavati Devi

In today’s episode, we turn our attention to a figure often overlooked in mainstream history—Durgavati Devi, popularly known as Durga Bhabhi. A courageous revolutionary, she stood shoulder to shoulder with some of the most iconic leaders of India’s struggle for independence, including Bhagat Singh, Rajguru, and Chandrashekhar Azad.

Durgavati Devi’s story is one of defiance, daring, and determination. At a time when women were expected to remain in the private sphere, she took on an active role in underground revolutionary activities. From helping Bhagat Singh escape British authorities disguised as her husband, to raising funds and even participating in armed resistance, Durga Bhabhi demonstrated that the fight for freedom demanded both audacity and sacrifice.

In this episode, we explore her journey from a young woman in a traditional family to a fearless revolutionary who risked everything for India’s independence—and reflect on why her legacy matters today.
