They have undergone much suffering and torture. They put the noose around their neck. Similarly, the immortal revolutionary, martyr Tantya Mama had blown the conch of revolution so that the poor tribals do not get exploited and Mother India becomes free from the chains of slavery. The British trembled at the mention of his name. He was given the title of Robin Hood. Such an immortal revolutionary Tantya Mama was born on the soil of Madhya Pradesh in Khandwa district. His last rites were performed at Patalpani near Mhow in Indore district. December 4 is the Balidan Divas of Amar Shaheed Tantya Mama.}
