Subhas Chandra Bose(Jan 23,1897 - Aug 18,1945)



Today is Netaji's 116th Birthday.It is more appropriate to observe Netaji's birthday as 'Deshpran Diwas' ('Day of Patriotism' )


Subhas Chandra Bose  known by name Netaji (Hindi: "Respected Leader") was an Indian revolutionary who led an Indian national political and military force against Britain and the Western powers during World War II. Bose was one of the most prominent leaders in the Indian Independence Movement.






Netaji is presumed to have died '' in absentia''  on 18 August 1945 from injuries sustained in an alleged aircraft crash in Taihoku(Taipei). However, no actual evidence of the death of Netaji on that day has ever been officially authenticated and many committees were set up by the government of India to investigate the mystery of his presumed death.
