	Maulana Abul Kalam Azad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Azad was one of the main organizers of the Dharasana Satyagraha in 1931, and would emerge as one of the most important national leaders of the time, prominently leading the causes of Hindu-Muslim unity as well as espousing secularism and socialism.
		Azad initially evoked surprise and suspicion from other revolutionaries, who were skeptical of Muslim commitment to their cause, but Azad won their praise and confidence by working secretly to organize revolutionaries activities and meetings in Bengal, Bihar as well as in the western port city of Mumbai (then Bombay).
		Azad's persuasion was instrumental in obtaining the approval of Muslim representatives to end the communal electorates, and was a forceful advocate of enshrining the principle of secularism, religious freedom and equality for all Indians.
