Bose : The Forgotten Hero of Our Freedom Struggle



"I am not basically a politician. From the beginning I long for Divine Sadhana. By quirk of fate I am dragged in politics and getting submerged in it. I am getting far away from Divine Work. " - Netaji

The true son of the soil who lived and died for his motherland.. He got selected in the ICS and then resigned to be a part of the Freedom Movement. Today , we see Govt schemes named after the members of Gandhi family but seldom does anyone talks bout Netaji who remains till date the Forgotten hero of our Freedom Struggle .. Netaji founded the Indian National Army which at its peak had 85,000 soldiers to fight for India's freedom .

Narayan Murthy once said "Had Bose been there at the helm then India would have become the second largest Economy of the World . He never really got the due credit for his contribution to India's Freedom Struggle ..."



Bose worked as the CEO of the municipal corporation of Calcutta for Chittaranjan Das when the latter was elected mayor of Calcutta in 1924

Bose used to say - "No real change in history has ever been achieved by discussions. Be the change you want to bring "

On his 115th Birthday , i can say only one thing .. I salute u sir..Wish u had lived a few more years ...
