Nevertheless, behind his extraordinary personality lie untold stories of courage, compassion and humanity that reflect the essence of his character. These stories illuminate the man hidden within the legend and serve as an inspiration for generations to come.
As a leader of the Indian National Army (INA), Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose shared a deep bond with his soldiers. A particularly poignant realization came to him during a difficult campaign through the dense jungles of Burma.

Netaji, despite his fragile health, refused to travel on horseback. Instead, he started walking with his soldiers. He encouraged them to persevere. When a soldier fell to the ground, Bose personally picked him up and said, "If you fall, India falls. Rise and India will rise with you”. His unwavering support strengthened the morale of his soldiers. This great warrior inspired them to move forward against all odds.
