Kushal konwar biography

Born to middle class parents at the village called Chowdang Chariali of Ghiladhari Mouza of Golaghat District (formerly falling under Sivasagar District) in 1905, Kushal Konwar was just like other youths of his times, leading a quiet family life.

Kushal Konwar was quiet and truth loving as a child - the traits that he inherited from his parents, Sonaram Konwar, and Kanakeswari Konwar. He was the fifth child of his parents. But from 1925 onwards, he came under the influence of Mahatma Gandhi and this changed the course of his life.

Since then, Kushal Konwar pledged to remain a vegetarian and accepted the Shrimad Bhagawad Gita as his only companion.

Starting from the salt satyagraha led by Gandhiji in 1931, Konwar even stopped taking salt. He observed these pledges till the last moment of his life.

During that time, after the Jallianwala Bagh massacre of 1919, the spirit of the freedom movement spread nationwide.
