Freedom Fighter:

Prof. Sher Singh made his valuable contribution in Hyderabad Movement, Hindi Andolan and Prohibition Movement. At a time when the society was in the grab of casteism and low-caste Harijans were not allowed to use the common well for drinking water, on 26 January 1929 his father Ch.

On this issue, they had to face social boycott.

In 1936, he started writing articles for journals and his first article in Pt. Shri Ram Sharma's newspaper "Haryana Tilak" became the bone of contention in the eyes of British Raj. In 1946, he was elected for Lahore Assembly.
