SUBHASH CHANDRA BOSE |
|
| When at the
invasion of Japan into Malaya and Burma those British possessions fell, Bose turned his
attention to the Far-East. Already a band of patriots headed by Indian exile. Rash Behari Ghosh had collected an army of Indian prisoners of war in the Far East and urged Bose to lead them against the British in India. Bose therefore made a dash from a German port in a U-boat in a perilous journey through seas infested with enemy mines and landed at Singapore where he took charge of the Indian army. With the assistance of the Japanese, he proclaimed a provisional Government of-India and called the army "Azad Hind Fouj" or the Indian National Army. Its flag was the Indian National flag with the figure of a springing tiger in the place of the charka. "Delhi Chalo" was its battle-cry; Subash was its supreme commander. |
