Singh Lodhi was a freedom fighter from Unnao, Uttar Pradesh. He laid down his
life at the historic Jhandewala Park at Aminabad, Lucknow in August 1935 while
trying to unfurl the tri-colour flag defying Government order that was
unacceptable to freedom fighters during the British regime. He was shot dead by
a British Officer when he climbed a tree in the park with the flag.
