Vijay Singh Pathik

Vijay Singh Pathik, popularly known as Rashtriya Pathik and frequently referred to in official correspondence by his signature initials B.S. Pathik, was an Indian revolutionary. He was among the first Indian revolutionaries who lit the torch of freedom movement against British rule. Much before Mohandas K. Gandhi initiated the Satyagrah movement, Pathik experimented during the Bijolia’s Kisan agitation. After being implicated in the Lahore conspiracy case in 1915, he changed his name to Vijay Singh Pathik. His grandfather’s sacrifice in the struggle of 1857 in Bulandshahr district, affected him deeply to be freedom fighter.
