    In 1941, Imperial Japanese intelligence officer Fujiwara Iwaichi set about building an Indian National Army - sparking off a tangled story involving nationalism and treason, as well as heroism and deceit. Was the INA a nationalist force, or a tool of Japanese imperialism? What happened to the Indians who Subash Chandra Bose persuaded to serve Nazi Germany? And should the INA be a model for modern India?

    Saying British Indian army fought against Nazis is naive and legitimizing the British colonial rule. Same way it is naive saying INA allied with Nazis and the Japanese imperialist regimes. Start viewing things from India's point of view not West's. Hitler was a monster but wasn't Churchil too a monster, how about the US who killed innocent Japanese using nuclear weapons.

      It's not naive. It's propaganda. Look at his title: "Real story of the INA is hidden in the shadows." And his conclusion? "I don't know for sure but Netaji might have been a Nazi". He's just fermenting lies. I am sure his family is filled up with people who served the British for bits of bread. Sellout.

    With all the pain he suffered in his life and after his life , he is greatest of all.
    A man whose life is enigma and death is mysterious , independent India missed him the most.
    Ghandhi, Nehru got Indian independence just by transfer of power on British terms , and not but anything like overthrowing British empire by force.

    Good overview, but missing an important piece of the story. The first INA under Mohan Singh collapsed because of friction between the Japanese and Indians. Mohan Singh and leaders of the Indian Indepence League were imprisoned by the Japanese. Subhash Bose was then brought from Germany to revive the INA. Among reasons for the collapse- Tokyo's refusal to sign the Bangkok Agreement, and the premature sending by the Japanese (without knowledge of their Indian partners) of 20 agents from a secret INA Spy school in Penang- all agents were captured. Details in my book 'The Swaraj Spy' (Harper Collins Nov 2022).
    The collapse and revival of the INA I'd crucial because it reveals tensions and arguably the attitude of the Japanese towards the INA.

    I am sure Subash Chandra Bose and other INA leaders had something like on their minds. Subash Chandra Bose had the necessary pragmatic and realpolitik approach to his “policy” with Imperial Japan and Nazi Germany.
    In long run, how this “policy” would have worked I don’t know.

    One sided annlysis. Indeed.Let me categorically point out
    1) Collective left meaning what? Netaji(also Founder of a Leftist party named Forward Bloc ) didn't consider or recognize CPI(the so-called left) as a leftist organization.
    2) Netaji dictated every soldiers of Indian legion of war not to participate any program of war beniffiting either British oR German. Even he further cautioned Hitler that attacking Soviet(Operation Barborossa)would be a catastrophe and a sabotage one.
    3) Azad Hind Government was recognized by both fasist and communist regime (Azad Hind has a embassy in Omask city in Soviet)
    4) Japanese massacre in Andaman. Who said that? Certainly Britishers and the people that had belittled tolerance towards Netaji.
    4)Pawn of Japan! How dare you to say.in that time first impression was raised he was active collaborator to Hitler. Later it became unadulterated truth who did. Yes Netaji took help but everything on conditions. He repaid some of the portions.
    Have you ever read Netaji wrote a letter to Ghandhiji in 1944 with a titke "American Imperialism is coming "? You could have found japanese mentality towards India's freedom movement.
    Baw Ma, leader of Burmese national movement once asked Netaji whether Japanese would be next aggressor after Britishers being forced out. He directly said to Baw Ma he would fight then.
    First research then speak.

    Today’s historians judging Netaji’s antiques and actions. Limiting Netaji’s legacy to ‘India’s Furher’ is very short-sighted. Travelling to enemy countries at the peak of WW2 to round up Indian POWs seems like an impossible feat if you think about it now - he managed to do that back in 1940s, rallied the INA without any proper communication channels, mostly through word of mouth.

Perhaps it is time to put together a grown up story of Gandhi and Nehru and how Nehru created the almighty propaganda to be the only person contributing to Indian Independence. The story of Gandhi and Nehru has so far been left to the likes of Romila Thapar and they have painted that with a fantastic emotional brush without letting facts get in the way. I would like some grown up handling of the history of our independence especially post 1935.

    Both Adolf Hitler and Winston Churchill had the same mindset.
    The moot point is, why 10 lakh Indians in World War 1 and 30 lakh Indians in world war 2 were fighting for the British, our #1 enemy?
    Sgt Major Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was personally involved in the recruitment of Indian soldiers for the British Army during world war one in which more than 100,000 Indian soldiers were killed.
    The British rewarded Punjab which sent the largest number of soldiers in world war one with Jallianwala Bagh massacre.

    First Netaji went first to Moscow as he has the grand plan to unite the armies of the USSR, Japan, Germany and India to defeat the British. Stalin could not meet him but wrote a letter of recommendation to Hitler, his ally in 1940. Netaji was against the invasion of Germany of the USSR and wrote a letter to Von Ribbentrop about it. Then he requested to make arrangement to travel to Japan. He went to Japan by a German submarine upto Madagascar and then in a Japanese submarine to Tokyo. At least 50,000 Japanese soldiers gave their lives in Kohima and Imphal alongside 26,000 Indian soldiers of the INA to free India. India got its independence as Clement Attlee said because after the naval revolt of 1946 and revolt in the airforce, the British could no longer trust the Indian army and they could not gather resources to keep India under them.

But out there while facing people. That's what our leaders did. Don't just insinuate like a coward. Now, here's the thing:
      The objective of Indian Army is to protect Indian J&K. Some of them raped Kashmiri women. Does that bring the morality and need for Indian army to protect J&K? Truth is more often simpler than these left inspired conspiracy theories. The objective was British Raj was to use India as resource. Objective of British Indian soldiers was to Get a Paid. Objective of INA was to free India. Objective of Japan was to weaken England by cutting off its colonies.

    Just because Netaji and Fuherer both mean the Leader , it does not translate that Netaji and Hitler were or would be alike. What a shame on you Praveen for insinuating that. Netaji was a man who could have been a comfortable ICS officer who threw away those comforts to fight for Indian independence.
    What on earth makes you think that Bose was so naive as to believe Hitler or the Japanese were great people. He was just using the principle ‘my enemy’s enemy could be useful to me’ . The rest is all your guesswork.
    Definitely INA inspired the Naval mutiny and that did play big part in the British getting nervous about their ability to hold on to India using Indian soldiers against the Indians.
    I still believe Gandhiji’s mass movement involving a large swathe of Indians was the principal driver of the Independence movement. But you don’t have to insinuate Bose would have been a Hitler to be able to make that point. Again, shame on you.

    Churchill led British caused the Bengal famine by confiscating all food from farmers where more than a million Indian a died. Anglophiles have to remember that.

    DO NOT DELETE this comment again:
    This talk is LAZY and LOUSY. Imagine for a moment Bose doing journalism in independent India. You think you would share the room's oxygen with him? And listen, if you have categorical information proving he was a freaking Nazi, do that JOB. Bring that to light. That's your duty. Don't say 'I don't know, he might have a Nazi'.You think this is storytelling? No sir, it's not. Theorise such sensational ideas of course, BUT bring it to the public with enough information that you can prove such a thing to the public in an open market. Not by hiding behind a screen. But out there while facing people. Don't just insinuate like a coward. This episode is a shame. Now, here's the thing:
    The objective of Indian Army is to protect Indian J&K. Some of them raped Kashmiri women. Does that bring into question the morality and need for Indian army to protect J&K? Truth is more often simpler than these left inspired conspiracy theories. The objective of the British Raj was to use India as resource. Objective of British Indian soldiers was to Get PAID. They were mercenaries. Including that Sam Manekshaw. Objective of INA was to free India. Objective of Japan was to weaken England by cutting off its colonies. When you litter truth with superficial facts but forget the essentials, you end up in such asinine donkey speak. Stupid. Calls into question your sense of balance. They were NOT sitting in a cabin, reading some books and passing judgments. They were fighting real fights. The world was cruel and real to them.

      What the Indian Army raped Kashmiri women? Moron, like the Indian Army killed 36 Sikhs of Chittisinghpura and 24 Hindus of Nadimarg, or Sikhs pulled out people from buses in Punjab, checked their Hindu identity and shot them dead. Seems to me Pakistani ISI propaganda and agenda has achieved fruition, if Bharitiyas can think so lowly of their country’s army and Sikhs belonging to families, where the elder brother was a Sikh and the younger a Hindu.

    Brainwashed people cannot face the truth. No doubt, Bose was a great patriot who took help of fascists for building on independence movement abroad in his own way. A secular, he despised Hindu communalism, respected Gandhi & Nehru far more than Savarkar, Hedgewar.

    Please introspect without prejudice and personal judgement. Mr Bose was a great man and extremely patriotic no doubt! However we also had a few bombs falling on then Calcutta and Madras in mid 40s by the Japanese (guided by Mr.Bose's army and his own direction). No to mention Singapore was a Japanese colony and half of China was, people on the receiving end in Germany were being gassed, I am guessing we all know Nazi Germany around WW2 too well.
    Germany and Japan never had any good intention with India either at that time. Germany and Japan were left out in the colonization age and so to compensate they started with a cruel colonization technique (Other colonization were softer in comparative term) in the first half of 20th century.
    IMHO Mr Bose (probably) had purest intentions but probably was a bit too innocent or .... India most probably would have been gassed in it's entirety if German Japanese alliance won during WW2 and a different different civilization living in India at the moment(unlike a slightly milder British Colonization). Please don't reply to this message with hate, IMHO this was the most likely outcome of Mr Bose being successful.
    I am a tiny pawn in the cogwheel, however would like to know ThePrint's view on this 🙂

      Japan was definitely imperialistic. But Japan could ONLY do that if some specific boot licking Indians helped Japan rule India. It is exactly those Indians who served the British Army. People respect Sam Manekcsaw. Sam fking manekshaw. The guy who would kill fellow Indians on the orders of the British. They were sellouts. They were murderers. Without those cheap sellouts helping Japan, Japan would not have been able to rule India, especially after India succeeded in Pushing the brits out. That would created a momentum that would have been impossible to reverse. Our culture would have stopped all Indians from serving foreign powers. The whole of India wasn't invertebrate.

    It was Nehru and other Indian National Congress, Independent movement leaders who defended Bose and others leaders after British US Soviet won't WWII.
    Bose was freedom fighter, but if Bose somehow overthrew British from India through Military means, and ruled India after then, India would have been like Pakistan, Military Junta controlled state.
    The reason Pakistan is a Military controlled state and India is a Indian People Democratic state is because the Indian freedom was won by People's Freedom Struggle Movement.
    The only reason the Hindutuva Right wing love Bose and hate Congress, is because they believe without Congress they could have installed their Hindutuva Hindu (which means Brahminical) state.
    The Kangana ilk are nothing new, this is main belief of Brahminical ilk for very long time. Most brahmins openly said that Indian obtained Freedom in a cowardly manner. They dont have any regard for Indian people, it is all about their dominance.
