In the history of India’s struggle for freedom, one man stands out in all distinctiveness and a class by himself. In physique and mental constitution, in manner and life style, in ideology and in action packed with drama and daring unmatched in contemporary annals, Subhas Chandra Bose is in his total personality a unique phenomenon of twentieth century India. The story of Subhas Chandra Bose needs to be told and understood in the context of the long march of the Indian people to independence from 1857 to 1947. His birth in 1897 marked the mid-point of that crusade. With the Renaissance behind him, he grew up in harmony with the evolution of India’s national movement, responding and reacting to it positively since his early childhood. Even as a schoolboy in a foreign missionary school, he found the milieu foreign to his nature and was thus already a rebel at heart.
In the course of his school and college career, he was in turn a pure humanitarian, a Paribrajaka and social reformer in the manner and spirit of Vivekananda, and finally a political activist. When Bose graduated in 1919 and set out for England to qualify for the Indian Civil Service, he already had a formed personality and his sense of mission was not in doubt. That overpowering sense of mission - India’s salvation from political, economic, social and spiritual slavery - rendered all other pursuits of life and career purely incidental. That mission admitted of no retreat. Therefore, when in early twenties Subhas Chandra Bose called his countrymen to his side, there was promise of nothing more than privation, sacrifice, forced marches and death.
Bose’s acceptance of Deshbandhu Chittaranjan Das as his political Guru was a surrender to a man who was similarly and totally dedicated to the cause of India’s deliverance. But the apprenticeship was short as the mentor passed away before his time.

Darjeeling, Sept. 25: Intelligence agencies had put a 15-year-old Darjeeling boy under surveillance after he wrote a letter to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose's elder brother Sarat Chandra Bose, according to one of the files declassified by the state government.
According to information gleaned so far from the 64 Netaji files declassified on September 18, Prithilal Subba could be one of the youngest persons to be put under surveillance in connection with the freedom fighter.
The file does not mention the contents and date of the letter. A Darjeeling resident who runs an NGO that seeks to unearth the truth behind Netaji's disappearance said that in the letter, Prithilal had asked Sarat Bose whether the freedom fighter was dead or alive.
The file contains a report of the district intelligence branch of the CID, Darjeeling, dated November 15, 1949. The report spells the name as Pirthi Lal Subba.
'A thorough enquiry has been made about the writer of letter. His name is Pirthi Lal Subba, aged about 15 years, S/o Late Dhan Prasad Subba. He is a student of Class IX.. of the Govt. H.E. School, Darjeeling. He resides with his brother Sri M.S. Subba at Ghoom under Jorebungalow P.S. He was formerly a student of 'Turn Bull' M.E. School, Darjeeling. He took his admission in the Govt. H.E. School on 6.4.48,' the report says.
File scavenger 4.2 license key. 'It is learnt from the Headmaster of the Govt. H.E. School, Darjeeling, that the attendance of the boy in the school is irregular. He is not in the good notion of the school masters for his desperate character. There is nothing against him politically or otherwise,' the report adds.
The report mentions that there was 'nothing on record against the writer of the intercept in this district'. 'It seems that he has got some leanings towards the U.S.P. of Sri Sarat Basu,' it adds.
The report concludes that there is 'nothing against him politically or otherwise'.
Prithilal, a resident of Ghoom in Darjeeling, died in 2000.
He had joined politics and had been associated with the CPM and the Congress, but quit when the statehood movement started in the Darjeeling hills in 1986.
