Early life and education
Bhupal Chandra Panda was born in Nandigram in the year 1911. Jaminder Braja Mohan Vidyaratna and Swarnamoyee Devi were his parents.

Revolutionary activities
After joining the Bengal Volunteers he formed a group with the members of BV. The members of this group conducted a number of Swadeshi robberies in several areas in undivided Bengal in order to raise funds for buying arms and ammunitions for revolutionary activities. He was convicted in the murder case of Magistrate Burge as he was collecting money for this purpose but it cannot be proved as Barrister Birendranath Sasmal fought for him.[3] But he was convicted in a political robbery case in Kulmoni dacoity Case under Narayangarh Police Jurisdiction. He was arrested from Belda Railway Station with a friend. Later he was punished for life imprisonment in Andaman.[4] where he was joined with the other members of the Bengal volunteers i.e. Kamakhya Charan Ghosh, Sonatan Roy, Nanda Dulal Singh, Sukumar Sen Gupta, Santi Gopal Sen, Prabhanshu Sekhar Pal, and Sailesh Chandra Ghose etc.[5] After release he took the leadership of Tebhaga Movement in undivided Midnapore district.[6][7][8][9][10][11][12]
