New Delhi: The date of 13 September looks like ordinary days, but this date matters a lot in the history of India. This is because on 15 August 1947, independence was destined for us, yet that freedom was not complete. Many princely states were bent on separation. Among them, the most powerful and prosperous state was Hyderabad. Nizamshahi was there. The Nizam flatly refused to accept the rule of Hindustan. Not only this, the Nizam's army started persecuting the majority Hindu population.

As a result, the then Deputy Prime Minister Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, taking a big decision, ordered a police action in the princely state of Hyderabad. This action is known as the codename 'Operation Polo' and this action started on September 13, 1948, at four in the morning. After the initial resistance of the Nizam's army, the Razakars, the entire princely state of India was captured by 18 September. The Nizam surrendered and signed a merger agreement with India. Actually, the Nizam of Hyderabad at that time was Usman Ali Khan (Asif Jah Saptam) and a majority of the princely population was Hindu.

Riya wanted to go with India, but the Nizam wanted to rule them on the strength of his army, composed of Muslim nobility. Razakar was against the merger of the princely state of Hyderabad with India. He supported the Nizam's rule and also tried to merge with Pakistan. However, in November 1947 Hyderabad signed an agreement with India to maintain status quo. However, Sardar Patel ordered 'Operation Polo' on September 13, 1948, because of Razakars' atrocities on the Hindu population. Within the next four days, the tricolor began to wave in Hyderabad forever.
