Satyendra Chandra Mitra (23 December 1888 – 27 October 1942) was an Indian freedom fighter, who started his political career as a revolutionary aligning himself with the Jugantar Party.
[1] In 1916 he was arrested and interned at Janjira Char, located in the midst of the Padma River (present-day Bangladesh) and was subsequently released after the Great War.
Continuing his studies he qualified as an Advocate in the High Court of Calcutta and joined the Swaraj Party, founded by Deshabandhu Chittaranjan Das.
Consequently, Mitra was imprisoned in Mandalay Jail in Burma from 1924 to 1927 along with fellow leaders of the Swaraj Party, Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose and Anil Baran Roy.
When Pandit Motilal Nehru led the Sawaraj Party, Mitra was elected as the Chief Whip.
