Influenced by a French anarchist who bombed the French Chamber of Deputies,[44] Singh proposed to the HSRA his plan to explode a bomb inside the Central Legislative Assembly, which was agreed to. Initially it was decided that Batukeshwar Dutt and Sukhdev would plant the bomb while Bhagat Singh would travel to the USSR.[44] However later the plan was changed. He entrusted Dutt to plant the bomb.[44] On 8 April 1929, Singh and Dutt threw two bombs inside the assembly rushing from Visitor's Gallery. The smoke from the bomb filled the Hall and they shouted slogans of "Inquilab Zindabad!" (Hindi-Urdu: "Long Live the Revolution!") and showered leaflets.[45][46][47] The leaflet claimed that the act was done to oppose the Trade Disputes and the Public Safety Bill being presented in the Central Assembly and the death of Lala Lajapath Rai.[48] Few sustained injuries in the explosion but there were no deaths; Singh and Dutt claimed that the act was intentional.[49] Singh and Dutt were arrested,[49] as planned.[50][51]
He tried to, that's good enough, that evil terrorist!
