Paparandi in Nabrangpur. Many died thereafter from their wounds. Over 300 were injured.
More than a thousand were jailed in Koraput district. Several were shot or executed. Veer
Lakhan Nayak (a legendary tribal leader who defied the British) was hanged. Nayak, Baji
tells us, was not worried about being executed, only sad that he would not live to see
freedom‟s dawn. Baji Mohammad mobilised 20,000 people to join the national struggle. He
offered satyagraha many times over. He participated in protests against the Second World
War and in the Quit India
movement, and served long jail terms.
