The poor farmer and his three daughters

Once upon a time there was a poor farmer and he used to spend most of his time doing work in the fields. He didn't have any son but still, he felt proud to be the luckiest father of the world as all the three of his daughters were very loving and caring. It was a time of 1857 revolt. 

India was struggling for its independence and most of the youngsters were participating in that war.  The farmer's youngest daughter also wanted to participate in it as she wanted to do something for her country.  But she was also very much worried about the dilapidating condition of her father.  She had decided to make some arrangement for her father before going to particiate in a war.   She showed her willingness to her eldest sister and expressed her desire to do something for the nation.  She appreciated her decision and assured her that the two would take care of the father.

Now the youngest daughter saught to participate in the war.  She took the permission of her father.  The father felt very proud after listening these words from his daughter and out of pride he said,  "Go and be brave like Rani Laxmibai."  She took the pledge in front of her father that she endeavoured to be like Rani Laxmibai. She came to the contact of some of the worriers.  She expressed her deep desire to fight for the nation but the worriers didn't believe her and started making fun of her.  

She felt very gloomy as they were treating her like a weak woman.  Ultimately she had decided to teach a lesson to them so that they could comprehend the power of women. 

She constructed a plot to make them her prey.  Very skillfully and marvellously she took them under her imprisonment.  

Afterwards, they agreed and felt pardon for their biased remarks. The team was being prepared for the revolt.  Though they were amateur yet they had a great fortitude.



They were just like the setting sun but still, they were having the courage to do something for the nation.  The youngest daughter of the farmer was very witty and she constructed a plan against the East India company.  They followed the plan and attacked the army of the East India company.  Now it was the right moment to see how skilful and witty the youngest daughter of the farmer was!

On the other hand, the two daughters of the farmers were helping her father for ploughing the field.  They were performing all the deeds very skillfully which was considered the copyright of men at that time.  The farmer was very happy with the performance of his two daughters and decided to give them a reward.  

One night he called both of his daughters and told them that her mother was a person having some supernatural power.  He told them that due to it they too had the same.  He told them the way how to awaken their powers.  He said that you have to recite the word eikraj repeatedly and then their powers will be awakened.  Both of the sisters told very humbly to the father that they didn't need it as with great power great responsibilities also came. 

They suggested that this power should be given to their youngest sister as she was having a philanthropic set of mind.  After listening to these words the farmer told them, "You have to think of your youngest sister and repeat this mantra four times."  Both of the sisters did so.  And in the end, the youngest daughter got supernatural powers.  She killed most of the army of the East India Company and also saved her companions. 

Thus, in the end, she saved her village from the Britishers.  Though very few people knew about her but she was one of the ladies who fought in 1857 revolt very silently and was killed by her own companion.
