MADAME CAMA |
|
Welcome
- Do Not Come!
Within a few days the house in France where Madame Cama was staying became the secret fort
where the revolutionaries of different countries met. Besides India's 'General' Bapat and
Hemachandra Das, Lenin, the father of the Russian Revolution, and others visited Madame
Cama's house and exchanged views. Savarkar, the heroic fighter for freedom, brought her
peace of mind and inspiration. The British Government was very much disturbed by her
activities in France. It begged her to return to India. The British Government also
requested the French Government to send her back to her native land. But Madame Cama did
not agree to return to India. When the French Government also, rejected the British
request, the British Government felt insulted. Like the fox which said, 'The grapes are
sour; I do not want them', the British Government ordered that Madame Cama should not come
to India at any time in the future! That was not all; it took over the property belonging
to Madame Cama worth over a lake of rupees,and swallowed it all. |
