Subhash Chandra Bose's contribution to India's freedom struggle

 As soon as it comes to the history of India's freedom struggle against the British, the name of Subhash Chandra Bose stands out among the important freedom fighters. From the very beginning, the highly ambitious Bose was determined to take part in the freedom struggle, despite knowing that the path was fraught with difficulties.


Beginning


Subhash Chandra Bose, also fondly known as Netaji, became a part of India's freedom struggle, after which Subhash Chandra Bose joined the Civil Disobedience Movement, which was going on under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi. However, at that time Subhash Chandra Bose had achieved success in the Indian Administrative Service (ICS) examinations, but Subhash Chandra Bose decided to fight for the independence of the country. Later, Subhash Chandra Bose also became an active member of the Indian National Congress (INC). In the years 1938 and 1939, Subhash Chandra Bose was elected as the party president. However, Subhash Chandra Bose resigned from his post in the year 1940 and after that Subhash founded his own party named Forward Bloc.


Creation of branches abroad


Subhash Chandra Bose was put under house arrest by the British government, because Subhash was opposing the British rule at that time. However, Subhash secretly left the country in the year 1941 and went westwards through Afghanistan to Europe, where Subhash sought help from the Russians and Germans to wage war against the British. Subhash visited Japan in 1943, where the imperial administration agreed to his request for help. It was here where Subhash formed 'Azad Hind Fauj' with Indian prisoners of war who worked for the British Indian Army. In October 1943, Subhash formed a provisional government, which was granted unlimited powers during the Second World War.

Ending


Under the leadership of Bose, the INA (Azad Hind Fauj) attacked parts of North-East India and managed to capture some parts. However, in the end the INA was forced to surrender, due to bad weather and Japanese policies. Subhas Chandra Bose, however, was one of those who were not ready to surrender. Subhash Chandra Bose somehow escaped from there and tried to repeat his struggle again. Subhash Chandra Bose escaped safely by a plane at Taihoku Airport, but his escape was futile. It is said that Subhas Chandra Bose's plane crashed in Formosa (now known as Taiwan), at that time Formosa was being ruled by the Japanese. It is said that Netaji was seriously burnt in this accident, due to which he went into coma and never came out of it. Subhash Chandra Bose died on 18 August 1945.



How did Subhash Chandra Bose contribute?


Apart from this, another fact is that Subhash Chandra Bose tried to be different from the revolutionary extremist freedom fighters for a long time and maintained the spirit of fiery leadership during the crucial period of the history of India, and in many other ways Bose Made his unique contribution in the freedom struggle for his motherland. The attack by the INA (Azad Hind Fauj), no matter how short-lived, was a significant factor that ultimately contributed to the British people's decision to stop their actions and return them to their country. In the end Subhash Chandra Bose paved the way for India's independence.

After Subhash was expelled from Europe by the British, Subhash Chandra Bose established contacts between various European countries, which could not previously be done in India. Subhash Chandra Bose was approved by these countries for his strong economic planning, and we also need to remember that Subhash Chandra Bose was the person who founded the Rani Laxmibai Fauj, the women's wing of the INA (Azad Hind Fauj). At a time, when the British, with the help of some people in the country, were shedding the blood of Indians, it was his series of radio broadcasts from Berlin that at least immortalized those who died in the country.

Netaji is undoubtedly one of the most important figures in the history of India's independence. Subhash Chandra Bose, along with leading leaders of the freedom struggle like Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru, played an important role in liberating the country in its own right from the clutches of 200 years of British rule. As an active freedom fighter, Subhash Chandra Bose retained his spirit of fighting the British even in the last days of his life – so much so that when he died, he was planning to transfer to Russia and fight the British people. They were planning to find a new path for the future and their tenacity and patriotic zeal are such that they deserve to be honored more than anyone else.
