I think the contribution of Subhash Chandra Bose to our freedom struggle is greatly undermined .

Who had guts to revolt against the unjust tyranny of MK Gandhi and his absolute monopoly over Congress
Men who never wanted anything for himself but for his country who left the post of president from party and formed his own party Forward Bloc and who formed mighty INA for the freedom of his country
Men who sacrificed his family for his country a charismatic leader who never played a politics of divide unlike his few contemporaries who sold country in the lust of power
A men who has been forgotten by the people by the intellectuals .

Answer:
Bose was sent to prison in Mandalay for nationalist activities in 1925. He was released in 1927 and became the INC’s general secretary.
He worked with Jawaharlal Nehru (Born on November 14 – 1889) and the two became the Congress Party’s young leaders gaining popularity among the people.
He advocated complete Swaraj and was in favour of the use of force to gain it.
He had differences with Gandhi and he wasn’t keen on non-violence as a tool for independence.
Bose stood for and was elected the party’s president in 1939 but was forced to resign due to differences with Gandhi’s supporters.
Bose’s ideology tilted towards socialism and leftist authoritarianism. He formed the All India Forward Bloc in 1939 as a faction within the Congress.
At the start of the Second World War, Bose protested against the government for not consulting Indians before dragging them into the war. He was arrested when he organised protests in Calcutta for the removal of the monument memorialising the Black Hole of Calcutta.
He was released after a few days but was kept under surveillance. He then made his escape from the country in 1941 to Germany via Afghanistan and the Soviet Union. He had previously travelled to Europe and met with Indian students and European political leaders.
In Germany, he met with the Nazi leaders and hoped to stage an armed struggle against the British to gain independence. He hoped to befriend the Axis powers since they were against his ‘enemy’, the British.
He founded the Indian Legion out of about 4500 Indian soldiers who were in the British army and had been taken prisoners by the Germans from North Africa.
In 1943, he left Germany for Japan disillusioned with the lukewarm German support for Azad Hind.
Bose’s arrival in Japan revived the Indian National Army (Azad Hind Fauj) which had been formed earlier with Japanese help.
Azad Hind or the Provisional Government of Free India was established as a government-in-exile with Bose as the head. Its headquarters was in Singapore. The INA was its military.
Bose motivated the troops with his fiery speeches. His famous quote is, “Give me blood, and I shall give you freedom!”
The INA supported the Japanese army in its invasion of northeast India and also took control of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. However, they were forced to retreat by the British forces following the Battles of Kohima and Imphal in 1944.
