Netaji: Collected Works: Volume 2: The Indian Struggle, 1920-1942
Subhas Chandra Bose
Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose's statue at India Gate will serve as an antidote to India's founding myth that it won independence through non-violence. As I wrote earlier, that costly myth is at the root of India's twin problems relating to China and Pakistan. https://t.co/xU6Q3CcRIY
