1095 Words5 Pages

India is a socialist republic according to the preamble of the Constitution of India. Socialist conceptions played a paramount part in the freedom movement of India. The poorest and lowest classes had been servile to the landlords and kings long afore the British came and they were inspirited by socialist conceptions to hope for a better future. India has visually perceived some great bellwethers who have been socialist in the truest meaning of the word by placing the welfare of the common people afore everything else. Let’s take an optical canvassing of 3 such bellwethers of the people. Subhas Chandra Bose was a genuinely munificent man who put his country and the people of his country afore everything else. He is the idol of every patriot and his slogan of “You give me blood, I’ll give you freedom” struck at the heart of countless Indians and encouraged them to fight for their liberation. Albeit he is mostly recollected for his armed struggle against the British rule, he was additionally a deeply spiritual man who was inspired by the fresh interpretation of the Vedic scriptures by Swami Vivekananda and was deeply socialist in his political ideology. Subhas Chandra Bose, being a Secularist, had a posture of impartiality towards all religions. According to him, the Regime of Free India must have an absolutely neutral and impartial posture towards all religions and leave it to the cull of every individual to profess or follow a particular religion
