Chandrashekhar Azad vs Holden Roberto

Chandrashekhar Azad and Bhagat Singh assassinated British police officer J.P. Saunders in Lahore. The killing was in retaliation for the death of Lala Lajpat Rai, and it made Azad a wanted revolutionary.

Chandrashekhar Azad helped plan the bombing of the Central Legislative Assembly in Delhi by Bhagat Singh and Batukeshwar Dutt. The bombing was intended to protest repressive laws, and Azad evaded capture.

Chandrashekhar Azad was surrounded by British police at Alfred Park in Allahabad. He fought a gun battle to avoid capture and then shot himself, fulfilling his vow to die free rather than be arrested.

Roberto founded the FNLA, a nationalist movement fighting for Angolan independence from Portugal. He established a government-in-exile in Zaire and received support from the US and China, becoming a key figure in the independence struggle.

Roberto unilaterally declared independence for Angola from his base in Zaire, establishing a rival government to the MPLA's declaration. This move was not internationally recognized and contributed to the outbreak of the Angolan Civil War.

Roberto's FNLA forces were decisively defeated by the MPLA, which was supported by Cuban troops. The FNLA was driven from its strongholds and effectively ceased to be a major military force in the civil war.

After his military defeat, Roberto fled to Zaire, where he lived in exile. His political influence waned as the MPLA consolidated power, and he was unable to mount a significant challenge to the Angolan government.
