RAS BIHARI – The Less Remembered Bose

The @INCIndia & Left Intellectuals SELECTED THE HISTORY to be taught at schools & colleges, OMITTING which were not suitable to their agendas..

On the Jayanti of #RasBihariBose, lets pay tribute for the Founder Of Hindu Maha Sabha (Japan)

and Indian National Army
I'm very much sure, both Congis and Commis have written their own piece of history linking Ras Bihari with freedom movement & having an agenda like Pro Marx /Anti Communal, but fortunately for the nationalists & patriots, they have letters of

communication happened between
2 Greatest Nationalists Veer Savarkar & Ras Bihari Bose for years discussing the Nature, Future of Bharat, INA & the need of the Army.

THANKS TO @JapanGov, they preserved everything giving no chance for Communists Propagandists to destroy the

Hinduness in Japan.

Ras Bihari Bose was born on 25th May 1886 at Burdhwan, West Bengal & not much is available about his childhood except he was inspired by revolutionary stories his prinicpal Charuchandra & grandfather Kalicharan told.

After leaving school, he made

unsuccessful attempts to join the Indian Army before landing a clerk's job with the Forest Research Institute at Dehradun.
Bose had wanted a role that would allow him to give the impression of being a loyal British subject while he worked on dismantling British rule from the

inside. On December 23, 1912 an explosion rocked Delhi just as Hardinge, the Viceroy, entered the new capital on the back of an elephant.
He survived but Mahout was killed and mastermind Ras Bihari returned to Dehra Dun by the night train and joined the office the next day as

though nothing had happened.
Further, he organized a meeting of loyal citizens of Dehradun to condemn the dastardly attack on the Viceroy.

(THOSE WHO QUESTION MERCY PETITIONS OF SAVARKAR WONT SAY THIS. DO THEY? Their propaganda must be demolished with these kind of facts)

Elizabeth Eston and Lexi Kawabe
the authors of "Rash Behari Bose: The father of the Indian National Army." says his attempted assassination of Hardinge triggered a massive manhunt, but his previous efforts to ingratiate himself with the British elite served him well, managed

to stay under the radar until his links to the independence movement were revealed in 1913 by a police raid on a comrade, they wrote.
Investigators seized a briefcase he'd left at the property -- his cover was blown.

The next 5 threads are from the same book

Bose was on the

run when he organized one of his most audacious plans.

After the assassination attempt against Lord Hardinge, Bose became well known among revolutionary circles in Bharat. With the British distracted by World War I, he planned to spark a mutiny similar to the uprising of 1857

when Bharatiya soldiers serving under British rulers had rebelled, McQuade wrote.
Indian revolutionaries from US, Canada, Germany made their way to Bharat in 1914 and contacted several army units across India and even in Singapore, with each agreeing to defect once called upon.

The date for the start of the rebellion was set for February 21, 1915, in Lahore.
But as spies infiltrated the movement, the British started disarming Indian soldiers, wrote Eston and Kawabe.
Undeterred, Bose moved the start of the rebellion to February 19 - but the simultaneous

plot was suppressed by counter-intelligence operations that saw many revolutionaries executed, imprisoned and exiled.
With the authorities on his heels and a bounty on his head, Bose decided he was no longer safe in India.
Disguising himself as a relative of Rabindranath Tagore

Bose set sail for Japan from the Port of Kolkata on May 12, 1915.
He never saw his Bharat again, but made Japan his home.
Japan's Victory over Russia gave freedom fighters like Bose hope. They thought Japan, with the rest of Asia, would be able to challenge Western hegemony.

Britain, France & Portugal had gained control of vast territory across Asia and Africa while building up their empires.
Under the guise of trade missions, they exploited the natural resources found across those territories and sought to "bring civilization" to the people there.

Bose met Mitsuru Toyama, an influential figure among Japanese political circles. Toyama sheltered Bose in a bakery called "Nakamaurya Salon"
The Owners were Aizo and Kokko Soma, In 1918, to protect himself from capture, Bose married Soma's eldest daughter Toshiko.
the marriage

was devised to ease Bose's integration into Japanese society so he could keep fighting for Bharats independence. It also made it easier for Bose to become Japanese citizen in 1923.
The couple had 2 children before disaster struck.
Toshiko died from pneumonia in 1925
After her

death, he never remarried. They were buried together after Bose's death.
They had two children together. Masahide Bose (Bharatchandra) was born in 1920. He died in World War II aged 24. Their daughter Tetsuko was born in 1922
Bose threw himself into the independence movement

to overcome his grief.
Eager to build cultural ties between Japan and India, he established and ran numerous associations such as the Indo-Japanese Friends Society and a hostel called "Villa Asians" for Asian students
He published widely on Bharat's past, promoted ties between

India and Japan, and seized every chance to advocate for a Pan-Asian union to strengthen the region.
Bose was becoming bolder with his public profile and was regularly featured in Japanese newspapers.
When Bose came to Japan, only educated Japanese knew about India, which back

then was known as "Tenjiku," meaning "land of heavens" in Japanese. People dubbed Bose "tenrai," which means heavenly being, according to Kawabe.

In 1931, Bose organized the first Indian Independence League in Japan which aimed to attain the "independence of India by all

possible means,".
In March & April 1939 issues of Japanese Magazine Dai AjiaShugi (Greater Asianism), Introducing Veer Savarkar to his readers, he wrote :- Savarkar "is heroism, valor, adventure, and epitome of patriotism". "To praise him is to praise the spirit of sacrifice".

He is the one "who always kept the fire of India's freedom burning; he is a patriot who risked his life for the freedom of India in the early 20th century and is a founder exponent of the doctrine of cultural
independence in the current times". After writing in detail about the

views of Veer Savarkar about Hindutva and also his policy of Militarization of Hindus, Rash Behari Bose sums up the article by saying "If you agree with Savarkar, you will have political power, and
he has a strong position in the Indian independence movement."
Ras Bihari

established Hindu Maha Sabha at Japan in 1938
and handed over INA to Subhash Chandra Bose & attained sadgati on 21-01-1945.

Space constraint made me end this thread abruptly.
