The image showcases a gathering of determined individuals, united in their mission to rebel against British oppression. The scene is set in an interior space, where rebels from all walks of life have come together to plan and strategize their uprising. Among them are blacksmiths, symbolizing the strength and resilience of the working class who played a crucial role in this independence movement. In this solemn moment, each supporter takes a vow, pledging their unwavering commitment to fight for freedom from British rule.
