[00:00:17]Among those who fought for Indian Independence, the fearless fighter Subhash Chandra Bose, whom we all call Netaji.

[00:00:28]Born into a Bengali family, Bose did not like serving the British government after completing the Indian Civil Service Exam.

[00:00:38]He immediately joined the Freedom Moment. This one decision changed his life. He quickly became a very powerful leader in the Indian National Congress.

[00:00:54]Mahatma Gandhi worked very closely with Jawaharlal Nehru.

[00:01:00]But he left due to ideological differences.

[00:01:05]He did not like Gandhi's theory of nonviolence.

[00:01:08]That is why he founded the Azad Hindu Foundation.

[00:01:16]His slogan was "Give me your blood, I will give you freedom." He urged everyone to work for equality among Indians, regardless of religion or caste. He ignited patriotism among the youth. He also encouraged women in the country to participate in the Freedom Movement.

[00:01:39]For that, he established the Rani of Jhansi Regiment.

[00:01:48]Many other women, including Lakshmi Sahegal, Bharathi Saraswati, Rajamani Janaki, participated in that struggle.

[00:02:06]Netaji collected many funds by encouraging Indians living in many countries like Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and Myanmar.

[00:02:11]However, in 1941, the British arrested Netaji in Calcutta House. Then the Second World War breaks out.

[00:02:22]One night, Netaji escaped British surveillance and fled. He traveled to many countries seeking support for India's independence. Then he reached Germany through Afghanistan and met Hitler and asked for her help. He met Hitler not because he liked his ideologies, but only because he hoped that the enemy of our enemy would become our friend.

[00:02:55]He even returned secretly in a submarine with Hitler's help. He reached India by changing from a German submarine to a Japanese submarine.

[00:03:09]Today, if we say anything, we will all be shaken.

[00:03:14]He is the one who started the saying, "Jai Hind," which made the youth cry for independence.

[00:03:27]In 1945, Subhash Chandra Bose's plane stopped in Taiwan for fuel on its way from Bangkok to Japan.

[00:03:41]While taking off again, his plane crashed and burst into flames.

[00:03:50]Bose died in that accident.

[00:03:53]Japanese soldiers cremated him there, but his ashes were safely taken to Japan and preserved in a Buddhist temple called Rinkoji. The Japanese government has ordered them to hand over the assets of the Great Leader of India if the Indians come and ask for them.

[00:04:19]However, even after all these years, no one has asked for Chandra Bose's ashes in Tokyo.

[00:04:27]After independence, we all forgot about him. Not only us, but even our government cannot remember Subhash Chandra Bose.

[00:04:38]His ashes still lie in that small Buddhist temple in Tokyo.

[00:04:44]Let's see if anyone goes.

[00:04:47]Jai Hind.
