Subhas Chandra Bose

Amar Chitra Katha #544

by Yagya Sharma, Haridas Shetty, Anant Pai (Editor)

The national movement for independence in India threw up figures larger than life, who surrendered themseles to a cause bigger than anything they had ever known. Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose stands out as a dynamic, restless force in an era which had chosen the path of Gandhi, the path of peace and non-violent non-co-operation. Bengal chose to voice its protest militantly and Subhas Chandra Bose was a true son of Bengal.India was awakening to its national identity and Netaji marshalled foreign aid and sympathy for his cause. His plans met with insurmountable obstacles, for he was pitted against circumstances quite beyond his control. His was a lost battle, perhaps even a lost life, but as events have proved, not a lost cause.Netaji's last Order of the Day to the Indian National Army puts it eloqunetly, 'The future generations of Indians who will be born, not as slaves but as free men, because of your colossal sacrifice, will bless your names and proudly proclaim to the world that you - their forefathers - who fought and lost in the battles in Manipur, Assam and Burma have paved the way to ultimate success and glory.'His stirring victory slogan 'Jai Hind' drew India into one united whole. To this day, on occasions of national importance, it reminds us that we are one poeple.

Subhas Chandra Bose's life is one of the most commonly discussed ones among the freedom fighters in India. His method of protest was different from Gandhi's. He played a massive role in the formation of INA, which in turn played a significant role in India's freedom fight.

Well researched and edited book. Honest about the fate of Subhas Chandra Bose, in ending the book with only factually known details.

Let the Bose live among us eternally.

Would give 4.5

I'm not a fan of Subhas Chandra Bose or his methods to secure freedom but this ACK does a decent job of telling his life story.

[Jon Nakapalau · Rating 5 out of 5]

The story of Subhas Chandra Bose is both tragic and uplifting. Wanting freedom for India he allied himself with the Axis powers; but only after trying to work with Gandhi to try to get the British to understand that the situation in India could not continue. Amazing to me that America could not see this struggle as so very similar to our own; we should have seen the reflection of our own struggle with colonialism mirrored in what was happening in India.

Nice book.

Should try out the book, it is about what Subhas ji faced and the risky decisions he made. I still wonder about the mystery about Subhas ji. He was a very courageous man.
