Arjun Singh Gurjar

Arjun Singh Gurjar (1910 – c. 1947) was a freedom fighter for India. He was born in Sirsa, Haryana.

Born to a Gurjar family, he participated in the Indian freedom struggle. The financial position of his father, Ram Karan Gujar was not strong, which created problems in proper arrangements for his education.

Gujar acquired working knowledge of Hindi. The political atmosphere of the town inspired him and as a result he started to attend the public meetings of the congress party which he joined formally during session 1935-36 and became its active worker.

His participation and role in the freedom struggle grew. He emerged and gained such a ranking and respected position in the town that he was allowed to court his arrest during the individual satyagraha Movement in 1941 and was sentenced to rigorous imprisonment in the district jail, Ferozepore. After release from the jail, he was again arrested in 1942 during the Quit India Movement launched by Mahatma Gandhi and was sentenced to one year's rigorous imprisonment in the old central jail, Multan. He remained in the forefront during the course of the struggle until attainment of freedom.

Gurjar died shortly after India became independent.
