Devi Lal
Lal was arrested again on 5 October 1942. He then kept in jail for two years for taking part in the 1942 Quit India movement. He was released from prison in October 1943. He negotiated parole for his elder brother. In August 1944, Chhotu Ram, the then Revenue Minister, visited Chautala village. He, along with Lajpat Rai Alakhpura, made efforts to woo both Sahib Ram and Lal to desert Congress and join the Unionist Party. But both workers, being dedicated freedom fighters, refused to leave the Congress Party.
