I have read that Gandhi was an orthodox Hindu and Bhagat Singh was an atheist. What was Subhash Chandra Bose's ideas about religion?

Image
Subhash Chandra Bose was deeply religious. So, he can never be branded as communist in its true sense or pro-communist as some leftist politician parties in Bengal under CPIM Jyoti Basu tried to project. These parties like Foreword Block and RSP promoted propaganda for political gain that Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose wanted a communist style rule post-independence. Bengali sub-nationalism has always been a prominent political topic in Bengal and communists like Jyoti Basu promoted this propaganda instead of doing real economic development. Similarly, he was not fascist and took help from Germany and Japan during WW-II just to overthrow British. Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose was strictly secular and had top military generals Sehgal, Dhillon and Shahnawaz Khan who were from three major religions from India. He has to be secular because he was fighting the enemy using Azad Hind Fauj (INA) who were ex-Indian Army soldiers. Presence of Sikhs and Muslims in Indian Army was in higher percentage ...

What factors make Indian Armed Forces the most loyal forces?

Respect from ordinary Indian citizens and the Indian government. On 23 January 2023, on the occasion of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose’s 123rd birthday celebration, PM Modi declared that 21 uninhabited Island in Andaman and Nicobar will be named after ParamVir Chakra winners. No amount of money or fame can match this honour. Excellent initiative by the government who always in the past gave names based on politics. This is ‘acche din’ for armed forces… Picture source: Social media  

Why is there no memorial of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose in India?

Image
Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose memorial exists in Cuttack which is his birth place and also his father’s house in Kolkata’s Elgin Road has been converted into a mini memorial. PM Modi virtually inaugurated a model of a proposed memorial dedicated to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose in Andaman and Nicobar Islands on 23 January 2023 to commemorate his 126th birth anniversary. The memorial will be set up on Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Dweep which was known as Ross Island before 2018. The memorial will have a museum, a cable car ropeway, a laser-and-sound show, a guided heritage trail through historical buildings, and a theme-based children’s amusement park, as per officials. Modi also named 21 islands of Andaman and Nicobar after Param Vir Chakra awardees. All these will add tourism attraction to Andaman Islands. This action proves that there are certain benefits if the national leader comes from ordinary family without any strong dynasty background. PM Modi has no relatives in politics and so he ...

What is the basic difference between Nehru and Modi?

Image
Nehru was leftist and hence he left 100s of problems, most of them created by him only, to be solved by future generation Indians. Modi is right winger who takes the right decisions to solve one problem at a time. This is the crisp and short difference between them. A detailed discussion can be a thick book like Indian constitution. Picture source: Google  

Why is there so much Nehru bashing in India now a days?

Image
Calcutta (now Kolkata) was most populated metro city at the time of independence with maximum economic and business establishments along with Bombay (now Mumbai) at that time. So, there was large number of rich businessmen there. Did you know that in 1945, Tatas, Birlas and Dalmias were three richest business families in Asia (outside Japan). Did you know that Pakistan International Airline (PIA) stated from Calcutta in 1946 with name Orient Airways. Prominence of Calcutta prompted MA Jinnah to include Calcutta into his proposed Pakistan state and the brutal Calcutta riots of 1946 (called direct action day 16 August 1946) by Jinnah’s representative HS Suhrawardy (called butcher of Bengal) was a plan to put pressure on British to make Calcutta part of Pakistan. Tata, Birla and Dalmia have been the business group names many Indians are hearing since childhood. But the Dalmia business family a is neither seen in business today nor is its name heard anywhere although the group still exists...
