๐ฉ Uda Devi was a valiant fighter who killed more than two dozen soldiers of the British army that laid siege to Lucknow, under General Colin Campbell's guidance.
๐ฉ Uda Devi Pasi was born in a small village of Awadh and like any other passionate Indian, her blood was also boiling as she witnessed the rising atrocities of Britishers.
๐ฉShe joined Begum Hazrat Mahal's endeavours of fighting for independence and was given the command of the woman's battalion by the Begum, during the Seige of Lucknow.
๐ฉ After the army regiment headed by General Campbell had decimated Sikandar Bagh, it was observed that the bullet wounds of several British soldiers indicated a steep, downward trajectory.
๐ฉSuspecting that a sniper was still hidden in the nearby tree, Britishers open-fired and a rebel's body fell on the ground. Further investigations disclosed that this rebel was Uda Devi, a woman, who was dressed as a man to participate in this struggle for freedom.
๐ฉ If one has ever passed the intersection outside Sikandar Bagh, Lucknow, one must've noticed a statue carrying a rifle. This statue is how this city is still paying homage to Uda Devi.
๐ฉKilling almost 32 British soldiers, she has etched her name in Indian history as the anti-imperialist rebel who defied conventions with every bullet she fired!
