Role of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose in India's Freedom Struggle.

Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose was a prominent leader of India's freedom struggle against British rule. He was born in Cuttack, Odisha in 1897 and was educated in England, where he studied at Cambridge University and qualified for the Indian Civil Service. However, he was deeply inspired by Mahatma Gandhi's philosophy of nonviolence and decided to return to India to join the independence movement.

Bose was a key figure in the Indian National Congress, a political party that played a leading role in the independence movement. He was a fierce critic of the Congress's leadership and argued that more militant action was needed to secure India's independence. In 1939, Bose was elected President of the Congress, but he resigned from the post in 1939 due to ideological differences with Gandhi.

After resigning from the Congress, Bose formed the Forward Bloc, a political party that sought to unite all anti-British forces in India. He also worked to build international support for India's independence struggle and sought assistance from foreign powers, including the Axis powers during World War II.

Bose is best known for his role in the Indian National Army (INA), a military force that was formed to fight against the British during World War II. The INA was formed in 1942 with Japanese support and Bose was appointed its leader. Under his leadership, the INA fought bravely against the British, but ultimately was unable to secure India's independence.

Bose died in a plane crash in 1945, under disputed circumstances. Despite his controversial alliances and tactics, Bose is remembered in India as a national hero and an important figure in the country's struggle for independence.
