Quit India Movement is also known as Bharat Chhodo Andolan or the August
Movement. The Quit India Movement was launched under the leadership of
Mahatma Gandhi in August 1942. Entire India came together for freeing
India from the shackles of British. This movement was to bring the
British to negotiate with the Indian leaders.
It was a call for
immediate independence of India and the slogan of "Do or Die" was
adopted. The leaders were arrested and were put behind bars by British
officials. Gandhiji fasted for 21 days demanding the release of the
leaders.
After the Quit India Movement the freedom struggle got
more intense and passionate. People raised voice for Purna Swaraj or
complete independence. After much sacrifices and efforts, India gained
independence and unfurled its flag on the 15th August, 1947.
Indian
National Army (INA)
Indian National Army also known as
Azad Hind Fauj was formed in 1942. The army was aimed at to overthrow
the British Raj in colonial India, with Japanese assistance.
The
first INA formed under the leadership of Mohan Singh in 1942 collapsed
in December that year and was revived under the leadership of Subhash
Chandra Bose in 1943.
Subhash Chandra Bose gave the statement- "Give me blood and I shall give you freedom" which called the people of India to join him in his freedom movement.
