- Bhagat Ram Talwar (1908—1983) played an active role in India's freedom struggle. Also known by the alias Silver, he was a freedom fighter and a peasant leader from the North-West Frontier Province in present-day Pakistan. While some authors believe his ancestors were of Punjabi descent, it is known that he was a Hindu Khatri, and identified as a Hindu Pathan. Talwar is famously known for his role as the friend of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose. Talwar helped Bose escape from house arrest in January, 1941. They made the dangerous journey from Calcutta to Kabul and Netaji eventually made it to Germany. Unknown to Bose, Talwar was a spy for at least five countries, namely, Germany, Japan, USSR, Italy and British-ruled India. He was an agent and prominent figure of the Kirti Kisan Party. Bhagat Ram Talwar's older brother, Hari Kishan Talwar (born 2 January 1908), was sentenced and hanged on 9 June 1931 by the British for his assassination attempt on the British Governor of Punjab, Sir Geoffrey de Montmorency. Mihir Bose wrote a book on Bhagat titled "The Indian Spy: The True Story of the Most Remarkable Secret Agent of World War II" published by Aleph. (en)
