FREEDOM MOVEMENT OF INDIA

Netaji 2


The INA, or the Indian National Army, was organized in East and South-East Asia by Ras Behari Bose and Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, to give armed resistance to the British, as opposed to the non-violent and non-cooperation movement of Gandhiji. They decided to take advantage of the raging Second World War and took the assistance of Japan. Netaji gave a rousing call : 'Delhi Chalo: Let us go to Delhi.' The INA penetrated the Indian borders, and reached Assam. The British Government, being seriously concerned about the progress and popularity of INA, started massive anti-Netaji propaganda, and the Indian communists helped the British to accomplish this task.
