| Abstract | The Indian freedom struggle was a long and unending struggle against British rule. History has witnessed that from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, Assam to Gujarat both men and women participated in overwhelming numbers. Significantly, the story of India’s freedom struggle is incomplete without discussing the contribution of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, which was the most dangerous prison known as The Cellular Jail during the days of British rule. The land has been a witness to the brave freedom fighters who made sacrifices during the freedom struggle of India. The islands are beyond the legend of native tribes living in prehistoric conditions. In this framework, as a tribute to the martyrs of the freedom struggle, the study aim is to examine: a) what was the role of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands in the Indian freedom struggle? b) What was the experience of the freedom fighters who were imprisoned in the Cellular Jail? Therefore, this study is based on the hypothesis: a) the Andaman and Nicobar Islands played a crucial role in the Indian freedom struggle, as it served as a prison for Indian freedom fighters and a source of inspiration for others to join the fight, b) the experience of the freedom fighters imprisoned in the Cellular Jail was characterized by inhumane treatment, torture, and hardship, but they persevered and continued to fight for India's freedom, c) the documentation of the story of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands and the Cellular Jail in Indian history has been incomplete and inadequate, and the sacrifices of the freedom fighters have not been fully acknowledged. |
