January 23 is commemorated as Parakram Diwas in India, honoring the birthday of the esteemed freedom fighter, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose. His unwavering dedication and unparalleled commitment to the Indian independence movement earned him widespread admiration, affectionately known as "Netaji."

 

Netaji, born to Prabhabati and Janakinath Bose, drew inspiration from Swami Vivekananda's teachings. His visionary spirit and determination led to the creation of the Azad Hind Fauj, aimed at liberating India from British rule. 

 

Recognizing the power of women's empowerment, he established the Rani Jhansi Regiment for courageous women fighters challenging the oppressive British Raj. Intriguingly, Netaji initially bestowed the honorific title "Father of the Nation" upon Mahatma Gandhi.

 

On Netaji's 127th birth anniversary, let's reflect on some of his timeless quotes, serving as beacons of bravery and enduring wisdom that resonate across generations.

 

Inspiring quotes by Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose:

“We should have but one desire today – the desire to die so that India may live – the desire to face a martyr’s death, so that the path to freedom may be paved with the martyr’s blood.”

 

"Give me blood, and I shall give you freedom!"

 

"Reality is, after all, too big for our frail understanding to fully comprehend. Nevertheless, we have to build our life on the theory which contains the maximum truth."

 

“It is only on the basis of undiluted nationalism and of perfect justice and impartiality that the Indian Army of Liberation can be built up.”

 

"One individual may die for an idea, but that idea will, after his death, incarnate itself in a thousand lives."

 

"Freedom is not given, it is taken."
