Singh assumed command of the soldiers who had revolted at Danapur on July 5, 1857.
Veer Kunwar Singh (1777–1858), one of the leaders of the Indian Rebellion of 1857 belonged to a royal Kshatriya
(Rajput) house of Jagdispur, presently a part of Bhojpur district, Bihar state, India. At the age of 80 years, during India’s
First War of Independence (1857), he actively led a select band of armed soldiers against the troops under the
command of the East India Company, and also recorded victories in many battles.
In his last battle, fought on April 23, 1858, while crossing the Ganges on way to his ancestral seat at Jagadispur, Veer
Kunwar Singh was wounded in the arm. Unshaken, Veer Kunwar Singh as a gift of Ganga, cut his injured hand and flung
it into the river Ganges, as is was his last offering to the Ganges. Soon after, he completely routed the British forces in
the battle on April 23, 1858 and died the next day on April 24, 1858.
