The government has announced the birthday of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, the country's great nationalist, freedom fighter and founder of Azad Hind Fauj, as 'Parakram Diwas'. This year will be celebrated as the 125th birth anniversary of Subhash Chandra Bose. The Government of India has also issued a gazette notification for this.
Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose was born on 23 January 1897 in the city of Cuttack, Odisha to Jankinath Bose. His mother's name was Prabhavati. Jankinath Bose was a famous lawyer of 'Cuttack'. The British government gave him the title of Raibahadur. Bose's father wanted him to be an ICS officer, and for this reason he sent Subhash Chandra Bose abroad. In 1920, Bose finished fourth in the ICS preference list.But Netaji's heart and mind were occupied by Swami Vivekananda's ideals. In such a situation, how did they become slaves of British by becoming ICS! Therefore, he resigned from the post. When the Simon Commission came to India in 1928, the Congress showed it black flags. Subhash Chandra Bose led this movement in Kolkata.
His slogan 'You give me blood, I will give you freedom' has become the national slogan of India. The British government is said to have ordered him killed in 1941 when Netaji tried to get help from Japan and Germany.
Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose did not want to compromise with the British at any cost. Their goal was to liberate India. Netaji was initially associated with Mahatma Gandhi, but later he parted ways and established the Forward Block in 1939. Netaji Bose opposed India's involvement in the Second World War, then the British put him in jail. Where Netaji sat on a hunger strike, the British released him from jail and put him under house arrest.
When Netaji was in command of Azad Hind Fauj, he was invited by Rasbihari Bose, the founder of Azad Hind Fauj. According to the book 'Netaji Subhash' by Dr. Rajendra Patoria "Rasbihari Bose handed over the command of Azad Hind Fauj to Subhash Chandra Bose in a ceremony at the Catha Bhawan in Singapore on 4 July 1943". Netaji then created a temporary government of independent India as the supreme commander of this army, which was also recognized by nine countries including Korea, China, Germany, Japan, Italy and Ireland.

In 1944, the Azad Hind Fauj attacked the British and also liberated some Indian territories from the British. Subhash Chandra Bose was jailed 11 times. The people of his family living in India still believe that Subhash Chandra Bose did not die in 1945 but he was under house arrest in Russia.
