# Vasudev Balwant Phadke

> Vasudev Balwant Phadke was an Indian independence activist and revolutionary who sought India's independence from colonial rule. He is also considered one of the 'Adi Kraantikaaris' or the 'First Revolutionists'. He was inspired by the motives of Chhattrapati Shivaji Maharaj, a prominent king and a godly figure to all Maharashtrians. Phadke was moved by the plight of the farming community and believed that Swaraj was the only remedy for their ills. With the help of various sub-communities of Hindu society he created a movement against British rule. The group started an armed struggle to overthrow the colonial government, launching raids on wealthy European businessmen to obtain funds for the purpose. Phadke came to prominence when he got control of the city of Pune for a few days after catching colonial soldiers off-guard during a surprise attack.
