Dear Friends,
Namaskaram!
This year we celebrated 125th birth anniversary of Subhash Chandra Bose on 23rd January 2022 in a big way. The government also announced that in future republic day celebrations will start
from January 23 instead of January 24 to include the birth anniversary of Bose.
Subhas Chandra Bose is considered the most influential freedom fighter with extraordinary leadership skills and a charismatic orator. He was called Netaji. He raised the first Indian National Army (INA), Azad Hind Fauj in 1943 and started an armed coup and inspired thousands of Indian youths to join the struggle for independence from the British colonial rule. His famous slogans are ‘tum mujhe khoon do, main tumhe aazadi dunga’, ‘Jai Hind’, and ‘Delhi Chalo’. He is known for his militant approach that he used to gain independence. Netaji is considered by many as one of the greatest leaders ever born. Subhas Chandra Bose continues to be a symbol of assertive nationalism. In this issue, we have given some of his quotable quotes.
