Who among the following called Subhash Chandra Bose as ‘Desh Nayak’?

Mahatma Gandhi
Rabindranath Tagore
Ram Manohar Lohia
Sardar Vallabhbhia Patel

The correct answer is (a). Mahatma Gandhi called Subhash Chandra Bose as ‘Desh Nayak’.

Mahatma Gandhi was a prominent Indian lawyer, anti-colonial nationalist, and civil rights activist who employed nonviolent civil disobedience to lead the successful campaign for India’s independence from British rule, and in turn inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. The honorific title “Mahatma”, meaning “high-souled”, was bestowed on him first in 1914 in South Africa, and became widely used in India in the 1920s. He is internationally honored as the Father of India.

Subhash Chandra Bose was an Indian nationalist who was one of the most prominent leaders of the Indian independence movement. He was the founder of the Indian National Army (INA), which fought against the British in World War II. Bose is also known as Netaji, which means “respected leader”.

In 1939, Bose resigned from the Indian National Congress (INC) and formed the All India Forward Bloc. He was arrested by the British in 1940 and imprisoned for two years. After his release, he escaped from India and went to Germany, where he formed the Indian National Army (INA). The INA fought against the British in World War II. Bose died in a plane crash in Taiwan in 1945.

Gandhi and Bose were both prominent leaders of the Indian independence movement, but they had different approaches to achieving independence. Gandhi believed in nonviolent resistance, while Bose believed in armed struggle. Despite their differences, Gandhi and Bose both played a vital role in the independence of India.
