The 75th anniversary of the Quit India Movement was commemorated on August 9. It was the last mass agitation before India became Independent on August 15, 1947. A day before i.e. on August 14 India was divided and a new nation Pakistan came into existence. On August 8, at Mumbai’s Gowalia Tank, Mahatma Gandhi gave a call for ‘Do or Die’ in his speech. The call for Quit India galvanized the people of the country. British imperialists arrested thousands of Indians. Gowalia Tank is now called August Kranti Maidan. The month of August is significant as far as India’s Independence is concerned. On August 1, 1920, non-cooperation movement against imperialist Britain was launched. The historic session of AICC began on August 7 and concluded after mid-night of August 8-9. Mahatma Gandhi wanted a catchy slogan, which can give a clear message to Britishers to leave India. C Rajagopalachari proposed ‘withdraw’ some others suggested ‘Get Out’. Gandhi did not like either. Yusuf Meherally, a socialist and trade unionist, suggested ‘Quit India’. Gandhi liked it instantly. The resolution was approved. It was also known as Quit India Resolution. The slogan touched the country. The two words carried a categorical political message and electrified the country.
