This article demonstrates that during the Khilafat movement, Lajpat Rai articulated a secular Indian nationalism that was sensitive to Muslim religiosity and Indian Muslims’ extraterritorial sympathies toward the caliphate and the Muslim world. Pigeonholing the entire thought of Lajpat Rai as “Hindu nationalism” obscures a historical-intellectual juncture when a Hindu political figure like him enthusiastically supported pan-Islamism as necessary for Indian nationalism. This article complicates scholarship that portrays Hindu responses to the Khilafat movement as consisting solely of fear and counter-consolidation. More importantly, by unveiling Rai's Khilafat-era nationalism, it uncovers the intellectual and political possibility of firmly holding a Hindu identity and articulating conceptions of Indian nationhood that are at ease with Islam and the wider Muslim world.

Dipankar Gupta THIS book is about a lot of things. It is first and foremost about Lala Lajpat Rai, a fact the title does not reveal. This is also a work that was waiting to be accomplished as his life and works have not received the attention they supremely deserve. But this book is more than that. It also tells us how Lala Lajpat Rai, through word and deed, informs us, even corrects us, on matters central to contemporary social theory. As in most conceptual lessons, a lot comes to the surface when we consider facts in extremis. Lala Lajpat Rai is able to enlighten us on a number of issues precisely because he was an honest man in a hard place. As he found himself positioned delicately on the edge of received wisdom, his life is a testimony to bold forward thinking. Lala Lajpat Rai was a Hindu communitarian but not a communalist. Prof Kundan Lal Tuteja does an excellent job of concealing himself and letting Lajpat Rai speak in action and words. Tuteja does not ostensibly interfere and yet subtly italicises appropriate aspects of the history of Punjab in the early decades of the 20th century. This allows him to foreground Lala Lajpat Rai’s contribution not just to the freedom struggle, but to Independent India as well. Lajpat Rai emerges as a profound thinker and not just as the brave activist we all know him to be. None of this revelation would have happened if Lajpat Rai were not self-critical and true to himself. His complex nature is made all the more fascinating by his...

Millions of Indians were protesting against the British in a way that they felt would best lead the country towards freedom. While some believed in a peaceful approach, others had a more direct, radical attitude towards the revolution. The triumvirate of Lal-Bal-Pal was a part of the latter group. Lala Lajpat Rai, from undivided Punjab, Bal Gangadhar Tilak, from Maharashtra and Bipin Chandra Pal from what was then united Bengal, had come together to advocate the Swadeshi movement—rejecting the purchase of British goods and becoming self-reliant as a country. How did three freedom fighters from such different backgrounds and far away states come together? What united them in their fight for self-reliance? Here is a brief history of the three great leaders, who had been fighting the British Raj in their own way. 1. Lala Lajpat Rai Source: Wikipedia/ Born in undivided Punjab on 28 January 1865, Lala Lajpat Rai grew up in a family that allowed the freedom of faith. His father, Munshi Azad was a scholar of Persian and Urdu and was a teacher at a Government school. Rai studied in the same school. Even before he focused his efforts towards a self-sufficient India, Rai believed in the principle. In 1895, he started the Punjab National Bank—the Rai had travelled to America in 1907 and immediately caught up similarities between the ‘colour-caste’ practised there and the caste system prevalent in India.
