Sardar Ajit Singh on a 1999 stamp of India

Sardar Ajit Singh (23 February 1881 — 15 August 1947) was a revolutionary, an Indian dissident, and a nationalist during the time of British rule in India. With compatriots, he organised agitation by Punjabi peasants against anti-farmer laws known as the Punjab Colonisation Act (Amendment) 1906 and administrative orders increasing water rate charges. He was an early protester in the Punjab region of India who challenged British rule, and openly criticized the Indian colonial government. In May 1907, With Lala Lajpat Rai, he was exiled to Mandalay in Burma. Due to great public pressure and apprehension of unrest in the Indian Army, the bills of exile were withdrawn and both men were released in October 1907.

With his brothers Kishan Singh (1878 — 5 July 1951) and Swaran Singh (1887 — 20 July 1910), and Sufi Amba Parshad, he continued publishing political literature about how the British Government of India was planning to arrest them and put them in prison long-term. Along with Sufi Amba Parshad, he escaped to Iran in 1909, remaining in exile for 38 years. He returned to India in March 1947, breathing his last on the morning of 15 August 1947 at Dalhousie, East Punjab the very day India was declared independent of British rule.

Sardar Ajit Singh was an inspiration for his nephew Bhagat Singh (Kishan Singh's son). He established Bharatmata society, and published a journal "Bharat Mata", which was later compiled into a book with the same name. In 1907, he started the Pagri Sambhal Jatta Movement.
