Subhash Chandra Boss
Bose, Subhash Chandra : better known as Netaji of Azad Hind Fauj
(Indian National Army,INA), was a powerful nationalist
leader and was also once elected President of the Indian National
Congress. He gained much prominence for organising INA during
world war II.
In his speech, while inaugurating the Azad Hind Fauj in Singapore, he
gave a stirring call to his soldiers &endash; “Give me blood and I shall
give you freeedom”.
Rightly called the Beacon of light of Asia, he was the first to address
Mahatma Gandhi as Father of the Nation.
In a message to Gandhiji, in a broadcast from Azad Hind Radio, Ran-
goon, on July 8, 1944, he said&endash; “Father of our Nation! In this
holy war of India’s liberation, we ask you for your blessings and good
wishes”.
Mahatma Gandhi described him as Patriot of Patriots
The ashes of Subhash Chandra Bose are kept in Renkoji temple in
Tokyo.
