The Indian Struggle Part-1 by Subhas Chandra Bose Download

The first part of The Indian Struggle, which spans the years 1920–1934, was published in London in 1935 by Lawrence and Wishart. Subhas Chandra Bose, during his time in Europe, wrote this book while in exile after being arrested and detained by the colonial authorities for his involvement with the revolutionary group, the Bengal Volunteers, and his alleged participation in violent activities.

While in Vienna, Bose had to rely mostly on his memory since he didn’t have access to many documents. When he returned to Karachi in December 1934 against the colonial government’s ban on his entry into India, he was promptly arrested, and the original manuscript was seized. After its publication in London the following year, the book received a warm welcome from the British press and critics. However, the British quickly banned it in India, with Samuel Hoare, the Secretary of State for India, stating to the House of Commons that it incited terrorism and encouraged direct action among the people.
