In
Bhagalpur, Parshuram Singh organised a group known as Parshuram Dal, this group chalked out a programme of taking revenge from sympathisers of British Government. The real strength of Parshuram Dal lay in Mahendra Gope, who emerged as great leader of this group. During the Quit India movement Mahendra Gope and Parshuram Singh were important revolutionary leaders from south Bhagalpur, who gave open challenge to the government and killed a member of officers. Gop gained a reputation as a ruthless operator and formed his own group within the wider Parshuram Dal movement. Later, Gope became independent and became leader of Gope Dal, particularly after the arrest of Parshuram Singh in May 1943. Mahendra Gope and his group had links with Congress Socialist Party. In May 1943, his group also joined Siaram Singh's party but they were removed from the party for certain reason in June 1943. ==Death==
