Book Description
Today, many Indians are unaware that World War II was once fought in India’s North-eastern region. The twin battles of Imphal and Kohima were so fierce that in 2013, a poll conducted in London recognized these as ‘Britain’s Greatest Battle.’ But, in the history of India’s independence movement, they have largely been eclipsed. While global historical accounts have framed them as a Japanese invasion of India, the truth is they were parts of India’s armed Liberation War against British colonial rule spearheaded by the Indian National Army under Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, with the audacious ambition of uprooting the British Raj from the soil of India. British Prime Minister Churchill knew it well. However, fearing a cascading effect resulting in a nationwide uprising in support of Bose’s Liberation Army, Churchill orchestrated a smear campaign to misrepresent this attack as a mere Japanese invasion rather than acknowledging its true nationalist origins. Against this backdrop, the story eruditely recounts the gamut of India’s major revolutionary movements culminating in the full-fledged Liberation War, which was played down and belittled by the conspiracies of the Allied forces of World War II to conceal it from becoming known to the world. The book highlights how British propagandists actively embarked on a vicious slander campaign against Subhas Bose to undermine India’s quest for freedom, deliberately seeking to camouflage the daring legacy of Subhas Bose and all others. Yet, in the final analysis, the story narrates how Netaji’s Liberation War subsequently forced the British to free India.

Book Description
This is a path breaking book by a former General that seeks to evaluate Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose as a military leader and indeed, the First Supreme Commander of India. Netaji was instrumental in India getting her freedom. It is the first professional attempt to evaluate the military performance of the Indian National Army (INA) in World War-II and its significant impact on the Freedom Struggle. The book has gone into great details about each and every engagement fought by the INA. This meticulously researched book seeks to reopen a significant historical debate about how India got her freedom. A succession of court historians have tried to craft a narrative that India had obtained her freedom entirely by the soft power of Ahimsa/non-violence and Satyagraha; and that hard power had no role to play whatsoever. There is also the dark secret about what finally happened to Bose. The author is pessimistic about the unearthing of the real truth as many critical Indian files have been destroyed. To get at the whole truth, we need access to Russian, Japanese and British archives. The author has analysed a wealth of data. It leaves us with some most disconcerting and horrible speculations about what happened to the man who in truth, got us our freedom. His legacy was buried and marginalised by a set of non-violent pretenders who expended inordinate amounts of energy in fighting the ghosts of the INA. Today, India as a nation needs to squarely face up to the truth. Bose, indeed was the icon of Indian nationalism. Today, we need to revive his legacy in the backdrop of an ugly debate that seeks to splinter the nation state in India under the pretext of free speech. Treason and treachery continue to flourish in India. That is why we need to revive the ardent nationalism of Bose - an Indian Samurai par excellence.
