8. Jhalkaribai



She was a female soldier who played an extremely important role in the 1875 Indian rebellion during the Battle of Jhansi. She was an important member of Rani Laxmibai’s army and often advised her on vital decisions. The reason she deserves a mention on this list is because she disguised herself as Laxmibai in a fight with the East India Company. You will find her mentioned in various Bundeli folklores.

9. Vasudev Balwant Phadke



He was touched by the plight of farmers. With the help of various communities in Maharashtra, he formed a revolutionary group called Ramoshi. This group started an armed struggle to throw the British Raj. He was also one of the founding members of the Poona Native Institution that later came to be known as the Maharashtra Education Society.

10. Lala Lajpat Rai



He is definitely a known figure, but when compared to other freedom fighters, his name does not surface quite as often. He is largely known for his protest against the Simon Commission, which did not include a single Indian member. He was beaten brutally while protesting and died three weeks later. Additionally, he was a part of a trio called Bal Lal Pal which included Bal Gangadhar Tilak, Bipin Chandra Pal and him. They advocated the Swadeshi Movement.
