PATRIOTS IN SHADOWS: World War II. British India. A covert war beneath the surface of Empire. The Indian National Army of Subhas Chandra Bose is on the Indo-Burma border seeking to liberate India. The British Indian Army is engaged in war with Allied support to prevent this. A chain of events begins undermining the war efforts of the British Indian Army. Arsenals burn, army convoys are sabotaged, trains carrying aircraft parts explode, and senior colonial officials collapse without explanation in the secure atmosphere of a prestigious club. As investigators chase shadows across the subcontinent, a chilling truth emerges: a clandestine network is striking at the heart of imperial power. Ordinary people, driven by belief rather than recognition, perform extraordinary acts that quietly challenge imperial power. Inspired by real wartime events, this historical espionage thriller explores resistance, secrecy, and moral courage during the final years of the British Empire. On April 14th, 1944, two major events occurred. The Indian National Army raised the flag of Free India for the first time in the liberated area in Manipur at Moirang Kangla. Same day, a devastating blast at Bombay’s Victoria Docks rains gold, destroys ships, and sends shockwaves through British India. This was the biggest explosion in the Eastern theater of World War 2 till dropping of the atomic bomb.

1. Nehru and Bose were very good friends till about 1938, when Bose accused Nehru of betraying him 2. INA was set up in a foreign country in different circumstances. The names of brigades were given before Bose took charge. 3. Nehru's defence of the INA was for political reasons. Bose's kin, INA men and others scoffed at it. All the same, Nehru hardly made one appearance inside the court.

Bose in Germany, First Week-April 1941 In the midst of World War II, Subhas Bose reached Germany after taking the long, circuitous route. He had left Calcutta on the night of 16th January 1941 and reached Berlin. He had traveled via Peshawar-Kabul and Central Asian republics on foot, by bus, horseback, and train, reaching Moscow, and then he was able to get on a flight. He arrived on April 2ndand met the Undersecretary of Foreign Affairs for Germany on 3rd April. He was asked to present a memorandum, which he did the next day, on April 4th, which led the Germans to assist him with a stay and to permit political activity. He met Ribbentrop, the German Foreign Minister, later in April, and the Germans was shocked by the wide-ranging and clear-cut demands. Although the support of the Germans was far less than expected, and the desired cooperation with POWs taken by Germany did not happen, the presence of Bose and his radio broadcasts changed the mood in India. Bose had been exiled to Europe earlier, when he was very sick. It led to his learning German, and this has proven to be a huge advantage now. The elaborate proposal Bose gave laid out a clear path for liberating India.This was apparently well thought out beforehand. A small excerpt from his nine-page memorandum given to the Germans. ‘The British Government is not as strong as it appears from the outside... only a strong blow is needed to make the House of Cards topple… British troops…number 70,000… Indian troops number about 180,000….The British section of the army …is the only loyal force…on whom the British Government can fully depend ..after the fall of France in June 1940, the Indian Army was in a mood in which there was utter lack of confidence in British military strength…A similar opportunity will come again when Britain receives another severe blow…in that revolutionary crisis, the… The government will have only …British soldiers to fall back on. If at that Juncture some military help is available from abroad( i.e, a small force if 50,000 men with modern equipment), British power in India can be completely wiped out.’ Bose achieved limited success in Germany, but his next steps in Singapore led to India’s freedom.

RT if you’ve never seen these pictures before. Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose in Japan, 1943.

Respectfully: the most authentic book on statecraft was written in India about 2000 years back by Chanakya. This treatise known as Arthashastra covers everything that the Prince has and more. The prince being inspired from Ceasere Borgia is very restricted. Chanakya was a professor of Statecraft and under his guidance the biggest empire - Maurya empire- the largest India has ever had was created.

🚨 In 1513, a man was thrown in prison, tortured, and exiled. So he wrote a book about power. The Catholic Church banned it. Napoleon was caught with a copy in his carriage after his final defeat. Stalin kept it on his bedside table and wrote notes in the margins. Mussolini read it. Kissinger and Nixon used it as bedtime reading. The book is The Prince by Niccolò Machiavelli. It's 500 years old. It invented the word "Machiavellian." And it's still the most dangerous book on power ever written. I turned Machiavelli's core strategies into 12 Claude prompts. You describe any power struggle (office politics, negotiations, competition, leadership) and it gives you the exact Machiavellian counter-move. Here are all 12:

@Vishwas1228 @crkotian2 No.

One eats beef and the other defame army forces ! Will you watch their upcoming movie Ramayan⁉️ Comment Yes or No.

@Zaffar_Nama A new actor. A fresh face.

If not Ranbeer Kapoor then who in Bollywood would have played Shri Ram's role in the movie? I see many people say Ranveer Singh, but if he didn't have recent Dhurandhar to his credit, people would be trolling him harder than Ranbeer Kapoor. Such was his image before Dhurandhar.

When I first started understanding music as a kid, I heard Jewel Thief songs on a loop in my family, so much so that the disc wore out in a few weeks. When I went to college in our hostel, songs from Aradhana were the only ones for months. The songs of Dhurandhar in my mind occupy the same cult status. Can't get enough of them. Not only a great movie but superb music and very evocative. #Dhurandhar2‌TheRevenge #dhurandhar

Chatrapati Shivaji and the revival of Nationalism. Homage to the great statesman, visionary, and strategist on the anniversary of the day he left for his heavenly abode. My personal take: 1. Use a combination of diplomacy and strategy in dealing with a strong, entrenched enemy. 2. Payback in the same coin within the grace of your own culture. 3. Inspire others: The spark generated by Shivaji led to a fire, and within a hundred years, the rulership of most parts of India had passed on to the Marathas. 4. Establish a Dharmic precedence as seen by his coronation by renowned priests. Truly a light in a dark period. AI generated image.

The book explaining and discussing this mystery CONUNDRUM is one of the most awesome history or investigative books ever globally.

@TheAtulMishra Good change from cringe dressing earlier.

Post Dhurandhar, Ranveer Singh has shown up at public events in: - Well-tailored suits - Jodhpuri bandhgalas - Blazers, shirts, and trousers Not once has he been seen in those loud harem pants, long skirts, or five-buttons-open silk shirts with kaleidoscopic prints. The boy has become a man. The struggling genius has become an actor. Genuinely happy to see him finally realise his worth and carry himself accordingly, in both craft and presence.

@ShineHamesha Thrice already.

Mitro, #Dhurandhar2‌TheRevenge dekhi ki nahi?

@ColinSpenc4257 Many do. They used to have a page on unusual words. Learnt many.

Today in history: April 2nd, 1941. Thousands of miles away from India,the person whose only goal was to liberate India from the British ,finally reached Berlin. The luck of the country had been slowly turning for the better due to the efforts of this man.His name; Subhas Chandra Bose,soon to be given the moniker Netaji. An indicative AI-generated photo.

The two most intense battles of World War 2 were in Asia.These were the Battle of Iwo Jima and the Battle for Okinawa. The battle for Owinawa started today, and it took 83 days for the US to take control with massive casualties. The Japanese, by this time, knew they were losing, but they used a strategy to make it as difficult and expensive for US troops as they could. Pic : Britannia.com

The British in India were rattled after the Naval,Airforce and Army rebellion.The inspiration behind these were INA and Subhas Chandra Bose. How do you run a country when your system to impose rule is in danger of being broken.The British sent second Cripps Mission to India to check ground realities. After checking ground realities on April 1st 1946 he said: ' We want to give independence to India as we can' The British were clear they have to leave.Then it became how to leave with least financial damage to them. Naman to Subhas Bose who inspired and led the last leg of India's freedom fight.

These five men have ruthlessly dismantled centuries of deception, distortion, and venom unleashed against Hindus by the entrenched Leftist and Islamist propaganda machinery. Repost if you agree! @ARanganathan72 @jsaideepak @sanjeevsanyal @Vishnu_Jain1 @vikramsampath

“Peace will come when we negotiate with those who want peace, but you can't negotiate with people who just want to kill you.” Identify the personality. #MayankSays #RannNeeti

Cripps mission had been sent to India with the Japanese Army threatening to come to India in 1942.The purpose was to convince Indians to support British. Bose speaking from Germany warned against getting fooled. read more 1942: When British Rule In India was threatened. Available globally:mybook.to/1942India AI image

@rbtalsaniya0021 @XGuruManoj @grok Just for info: When Modiji unveiled Bose Statue in New Delhi he also called him First Prime Minister of Undivided India.

@XGuruManoj @grok is that true?

Subhash Chandra Bose was the first Prime Minister of India :- Kangana Ranaut 🔥🔥 Do you agree Yes / No
