'''Gulab Singh Lodhi''' was a revolutionary who participated in the [[Indian independence movement]].<br />
<br />
'''Gulab Singh Lodhi''' was born in the year 1903 at village named (Chandika Khera) '''Fatehpur Chaurasi''', [[Unnao district]] in [[Uttar Pradesh]]. He was born in a Lodhi Rajput family. His father, Thakur Ram Ratan Singh Lodhi, was a farmer. Little is known about his childhood. He grew up in the turbulent era when the fervor of the freedom movement was at its peak. Lodhi took active part in the political activities against the British rule.<br />
<br />
Gulab Singh Lodhi participated in a procession at Lucknow which marched to the Aminabad Park for hoisting the [[Flag of India|tri–colour]] in August, 1935. The park was surrounded by British troops in order to prevent the hoisting of the flag. Gulab Singh Lodhi defied the show of armed force and climbed a tree with the Tricolour. As he was hoisting the flag atop the tree, he was shot dead by a British officer in August 1935.<ref>[http://www.istampgallery.com/gulab-singh-lodhi/ |title=Gulab Singh Lodhi |date=13 january 2015</ref> He died at Jhandewala Park in [[Aminabad, Lucknow]].<ref name="TOI2009">{{cite news |title=From triumph tales to unsung history |first=Ashish |last=Tripathi |date=5 October 2009 |work=The Times of India |url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/lucknow/From-triumph-tales-to-unsung-history/articleshow/5087894.cms |accessdate=15 April 2014}}</ref><br />
