Vijay Singh Pathik

Much before Mohandas K. Gandhi initiated the Satyagrah movement, Pathik experimented during the Bijolia’s Kisan agitation.

His grandfather's sacrifice in the struggle of 1857 in Bulandshahr district, affected him deeply to be freedom fighter.

Pathik was born in 1882 in Guthawali village, Bulandshahar district to Hamir Singh and Kamal Kunwari in a Hindu Gurjar family.

Pathik's Grand Father was Inder Singh, who was Dewan of Malagarh Riyasat and was killed while fighting against the British.

Pathikji’s non-cooperation movement was so successful that Lokmanya Tilak wrote a letter to Maharana Fateh Singh to meet the demand of the Bijoliya agitators.

It was Pathik who fought for the cause of united Rajasthan and had taken up the issue with Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru and Sardar Patel.
