Explanation:
Although I have massive respect for all the freedom fighters, the one which stands out to me among all of them is Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose.
This man was not only the possessor of extreme valour and strength, he also had the power to lobby magnificiently.
He lobbied all over the world to gather support for India's freedom movement
Started the Azad Hind Fauj which was ahead of its time. He thought of women to be essential to be in this force as they could easily go unsuspected and gain important intel.
Collected large amoung of funds from NRIs during his campaign. His speeches would leave even the smartest person awestruck.
Tried to unite with Axis powers so as to weaken the British rule. Had the British not been weakened enough to leave its colonies, we might have been still under British rule.
Wrote extensively to big names during that time including the Japanese leaders, German army chiefs and the megalomaniac Hitler himself.
He is said to have gone into hiding after India's independence. The government is still under pressure to unravel this controversy.
Overall, he was a great philosopher, an empowering figure, an influential personality but a bad tactician. But a man can only do so much.
Try to read some of his speeches and you will realize what all our ancestors have sacrificed for us to breath in this air of independence.
As Netaji rightly said
“Freedom is not given, it is taken.”
Jai Hind!
