had been pronounced, his counsel, Mr.Asaf Alt with his wife,
went to interview him.

child and ringing his fetters in tune with the song.
In the special magistrate‟s court, he began to read loud to us
the beautiful novel, “seven that were hanged” by Leonoid
Andrieve.
There is one character in it who shuddered at the idea of
execution .
He used to utter the words „I shall not be hanged‟. When
sardar Bhagat Singh was reading it, he was full of tears.
17. REFLECTIONS
Bhagat Singh was an extremely well-read man and his special
sphere of study was socialism.
“Bhagat Singh was so intelligent, smart and well informed.
This will come under INTELLIGENCE in Leadership
qualities”.
Though socialism was his special subject, he had deeply
studied the history of the Russian revolutionary movement.
It is generally believed that very few in India could be
compared to him in the knowledge of this special subject.
18. He began to read communistic literature, Bhagat Singh tried to
adapt his life to communistic principles.
His whole faith consisted in mass action, action for masses and by
the masses.
According to him what was needed most was a selfless young men
who would organize and work for that social revolution.
“This shows his INTIGRITY and HONESTY which comes
under Leadership Qualities”.
