Forgotten Heroes - Sarfraz Ali

This is an interesting bit of history that I had no idea of - the role of Muslims in the struggle for liberation of Hyderabad and the integration with the Indian Union.

Hyderabad Liberation - 1
“I will not declare holiday in this school, because Mr.Rizwi is dead. We will not mourn the death of this Anti-national and terrorist leader and rather rejoice that our days of being with India is near. ” To say this before a voilent mob of Razaakars and Nizam police, who had assembled before Gosha Mahal School in Hyderabad, was only possible to one person, that is Mr.Sarfraz Ali - an eminent scholar, nationalist and a person of strong conviction and courage !!
