[edit] His Birth place

The fact is that Chandra Shekhar 'Azad' was born in Bhaawra Tehsil of Jhabua district in Madhya Pradesh, not in Badarka village of Unnao in Uttar Pradesh. His father moved from Badarka to Bhaawra before Chandra Shekhar's birth. So the birth place needs to be corrected.-Amod Bhagwat 20:22, 16 March 2007 (UTC)Ab_18.

Chandrashekhar Azad's father Pandit Sitaram Tewari was from Badarka, Unnao District in Uttar Pradesh, but Chandrashekhar Azad was born in Bhawra, Jhabua District of Madhya Pradesh. His mother, Jagrani Devi had spent her last years in Jhansi with Sadashiv Rao Malkapurkar, who was a very important man in Chandrashekhar Azad's group. After Chandrashekhar Azad's death, Sadashiv Rao Malkapurkar had been in contact with Jagrani Devi and she had told the fact that Chandrashekhar Azad was born in Bhawra, Jhabua, NOT in Badarka, Unnao. 1 June 2007.

[edit] POV issues (July 2006)

This article overall reads fine, but there is some NPOV trouble:

"Till his last breath the soldiers were terrified of his sharp shooting skills. And this was to be the final stage of a heroic epic, the final scene in his life as well as the romantic revolutionaries of the HSRA..."

A biographical section should not be a hagiography. I'd suggest greatly abbreviating the account of his death. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 84.238.3.12 (talk • contribs) 10:42, 6 May 2006.

I disagree with the overall bit. This article is flamboyantly POV. It's the kind of POV that on first read appears to be satire. This article's text, whereever it may have been gleaned from, is the product of someone incapable of being a Wikipedia editor. --Adamrush 20:48, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright violation

The text concerning his suicide has been removed, as it was copied and pasted from Bhagat Singh: Making of a Revolutionary by the Trade Union Solidarity Commitee (published by N. Vasudevan). --Adamrush 21:11, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
