Q. In which city were Rajab Ali and Vasant Rao martyred while promoting communal harmony during the Indian independence movement?
Answer: Ahmedabad
Notes: Rajab Ali Lakhani and Vasant Rao Hegishte were killed on July 1, 1946, in Ahmedabad while bravely trying to quell communal violence during the Rath Yatra festival. Rajab Ali intervened to protect Hindus, and Vasant Rao to protect Muslims—together they shielded vulnerable communities, laying down their lives for peace and communal harmony. The duo were Seva Dal volunteers and close friends deeply committed to unity .
