Azad Hind Fauj (INA) appeared out of nowhere in WW II. Its leader was indomitable and adored. Says a historian.
Netaji allied with the ‘fascist’ side to gain freedom for India. This coloured the view of INA. But Sarojini Naidu would say, “(Netaji) was a flaming sword forever unsheathed in defence of the land he worshipped.” The land that would soon become a Republic.
