💡 Solution & Explanation

Bhagat Singh, along with Batukeshwar Dutt, threw low-intensity smoke bombs in the Central Legislative Assembly on April 8, 1929. The act was orchestrated to protest against repressive legislations like the Public Safety Bill and the Trade Disputes Bill without causing any loss of life, famously seeking to make the deaf state hear. Instead of fleeing, they courted arrest to use the courtroom as a platform for anti-colonial propaganda.
