Sarojini Naidu was a poet, patriot, politician and good orator. She was the first woman Governor of U.P. as well as first lady President of Indian National Congress. Sarojini Naidu was born in 1879 in Hydrabad. Her father Dr. Aghornath Chattopadhyay, was a scholar and scientist. So he belonged to a highly educated and cultured family. From her childhood she was a genius and self-esteemed person. She started writing poems at the age of 13. Her first epic was “The Lady of the Lake” of 1300 lines. She completed her education at Cambridge, England. She married a South Indian Dr. Gobinda Rajalu Naidu. She faced the society boldly on this intercast marriage. She continued her poetic life after marriage also. Her poems consisted of qualities like love, honesty, satisfaction and beauty. Although she was a poetess by nature but she plunged into freedom fighting and registered her as a patriot. Her speeches were amazing. Gandhiji appreciated and respected her. She represented him in various foreign countries. She harnessed all the opportunities which came in her life. This lady of popular multiquality left for heavenly abode in 1949. But she is the burning torch to Indians, especially ladies. We are proud of her. |
