Solution
Subhash Chandra Bose was born on 23 January 1897, popularly known as Netaji (literally respected leader), was one of the most prominent leaders in the Indian Independence Movement and a legendary figure in India today. Bose was elected president of the Indian National Congress for two successive terms but has to resign from the post following ideological conflicts with Mohandas K. Gandhi. He established a separate political party, the All India Forward Bloc, and continued to call for the full and immediate independence of India from British rule. He was imprisoned by the British authorities eleven times. His famous motto was “Give me blood and I will give you Freedom”. He is presumed to have died on 18 August 1945 in a plane crash in Taiwan. However, contradictory evidence is believed to be an extent regarding his death in the accident.
