Woman Freedom Fighter from Tamil Nadu, S N Sundarambal

7th October is also the birth anniversary of a woman freedom fighter from Tamil Nadu, SN Sundarambal, who was born on this day in 1913 in Tiruppur. Several freedom fighters from Tiruppur and Coimbatore districts fought for the nation’s cause during the British era. But statues of only two of them have been erected in Tiruppur city. One of them is ‘Tiruppur’ Kumaran, also known as ‘KodiKaatha’ Kumaran, who is among the most celebrated freedom fighters from the region. The other is the “simple and humble” S N Sundarambal, who didn’t step back from the frontline of the movement even when nursing a newborn. (MUSIC) Sundarambal was born in Veerapandi in Tiruppur. Despite being from a rich family, she was interested in social service and the freedom struggle. In 1928, Mahatma Gandhi requested the public to donate to the Congress Party to fight the British rule. Sundarambal climbed the stage and offered her gold bangles to the great leader. Mahatma Gandhi told her to instead join the non-violent resistance for Indian Independence. Sundarambal went on to participate in several protests during the freedom struggle, and during the Satyagraha protest in 1941, she was arrested along with her newborn son and jailed in the Vellore Prison for three months. She participated in the Quit India Movement and was arrested and sent to the Vellore Prison again. In 1943, Sundarambal organised a large-scale demonstration in Tiruppur against the British government and was again arrested and jailed for three months. After Independence, she took an active interest in ensuring farmers’ welfare in the district and organised many protests for them.
