ABOUT LOK NAYAK-
Jayaprakash Narayan whose name means, “Victory to the light”
was born in the early hours of October 11, 1902 in the remote Bihar village of
Sitabdiara. He was Phul Rani Devi’s fourth child. His father Harsu Dayal has
boasted about J.P., “My son will be a great man, some day.” At the age of nine
J.P. made his first break with the village and was admitted to the 7th class of
the collegiate school at Patna. He continued to be retiring and intensely
studious and by 1918 he had reached the final class. He sat for the ‘State
Public Matriculation Examination’ and was awarded a District merit scholarship
to Patna college.
JP was not religious but under the influence of the
terrorist’s fringe, he began to read regularly one of the most basic Hindu
scriptures, Bhagvad Gita, deriving heroic inspiration from the great battle of
the Mahabharat described in the book and
from his overriding religious concept that man is immortal. This belief in
immortality had become part of the terrorists intellectual disciplines. JP then
became Swadeshi” (indigenous) in his attitudes, using handmade village shoes
instead of the British manufactured ones and cleaning them with Indian mustered
oil instead of with British shoe polish. He dressed himself in a Kurta, a home-spun,
hand-woven material and an ascetically short dhoti (loose garment).
JP at 18, was married to Braj Kishore Prasad’s daughter
Prabhavati,14 in October 1920. Then Braj Kishore sent Prabhavati to live with
Kasturba as a daughter in Gandhi’s ashram at Ahmedabad.
Gandhi's nation-wide hartal in response of the Rowlatt Act,
1919, paralyzed economic life in man on April 1919. This was followed by the
Khilafat movement together with his call for the non-co-operator movement on a
nation-wide scale.
JP had joined the Patna college to appear for his second
year science examination. However JP’s dream of being part of his nation’s
revolt against the British rule in India left the college being funded by the
British Government and joined the Bihar Vidyapith, a tertiary institution set
up by Bihar Congress for all non-co-operation students.
In the meanwhile, Gandhi called off the
non-co-operation movement in horror because the violent mob had killed
twenty-two policemen in Uttar Pradesh at Chauri Chaura. The Indian National
Congress was outlawed
and the non-co-operation subsided. JP felt completely crushed
