History is written from the point of view of the victor. The British won World War II and the Congress party came to power after India won freedom. The history of the freedom struggle that is propagated in India seeks to give credit only to the Congress party for winning freedom. But this is an imperfect story of how India became independent. There were many forces at play. A special effort seems to have been made in the early years after Independence to downplay the contribution made by Netaji and others in the struggle to attain freedom.
