Details related to his life are also displayed at the gallery. Often known just as Azad, Chandra Shekhar Azad was one of the most prominent Indian revolutionaries. Born on July 23, 1906, he took part in India's struggle for freedom at a very young age and continues to be an inspiration to India's youth.

Moved by the atrocity of the Jallianwala Bagh tragedy, he participated in the Non-Cooperation Movement, led by Mahatma Gandhi in 1920, and became extremely agitated and aggressive after it was suspended in 1922.

Chandra Shekhar Azad was a student when the Jallianwala Bagh tragedy occurred, but that did not deter him from throwing himself into the freedom movement.

Azad dreamt of an independent India based on socialist principles and was fearless in his approach. He passed away when he was just 24. Azad was involved in the Kakori Train Robbery of 1925 and the shooting of British police officer JP Saunders at lahore in 1928 to avenge the killing of lala lajpat Rai.

Various such events from his life are presented through rare photographs being put up at the gallery.
