Gandhi vs Netaji: Subhas Chandra Bose's Break With the Congress
By 1940, Subhas Chandra Bose had lost his party, his health and his freedom. Within three years he would command tens of thousands of soldiers.
Part 1 of The Rise of Netaji follows his resignation from the Indian Civil Service, his friendship with Chittaranjan Das, his election as Congress President, the clash at the Tripuri session of 1939, his break with Mahatma Gandhi, and the hunger strike on Elgin Road that set the stage for his escape.
