<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->what makes the believers in that bose=dictator analogy think that the person who had such a checkered career, becoming civil servant, than political leader of such stature, would need to become dictatorial in his later political career (if he had one, in independent india)???<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd--> Reminds me a lot about a mix of Hitler and Stalin's carreers. I guess dictator isn't such a stretch of the imagination. Bose is a confusing character. Some of what he did seems alright, then other things bother me again.
Hitler was very patriotic. He unified the country and the willing German people. It was "all for the love of his people and country". Nevertheless he was still adharmic.
Does anyone have access to any letters or something that Bose wrote that indicate his intentions for an independent India, that is, what direction he saw it going/wanted it to go? It would clear up my mind about him once and for all.
