Narendra Modi remembered revolutionary freedom fighter Chand Shekhar Azad fondly, calling him a gallant son of 'Bharat Mata' and a remarkable man.
Feb 27, 2021 Outlook Web Bureau On February 27, 1931, Indian freedom fighter Chandra Shekhar Azad shot himself in the head during a faceoff with British police thus fulfilling his vow of dying as a free man and not as a captive in British prisons.

He also expressed concern over the law and order situation
Azad visited the family after the Uttar Pradesh Police lifted its two-day blockade around the village of the victim.
Chandrashekhar Azad said everyone had heard about Jallianwala Bagh, but now they are talking about Shaheen Bagh. 'I promise you that in the next 10 days, there will be at least 5,000 Shaheen Baghs across the country.'
The court had restrained Azad from visiting Delhi for four weeks and directed him to not hold any 'dharna' till the elections in the national capital, while granting him bail in the case.

Chandrashekhar also claimed that Mayawati was being 'misled' by Satish Chandra Mishra, her general secretary and Brahmin face of the BSP.
On Friday, the district administration granted permission to Chandrashekhar Azad, the founder of the Dalit outfit, for the road show from 11 am to 4 pm.
