Subhas Chandra Bose, the outstanding leftwing leader of India's struggle for freedom, was an intimate friend of my father, the late Khitish Prashad Chattopadhyay. As such I had the good fortune of knowing Subhas Chandra first hand, at close quarters, from my childhood and naturally grew up as his admirer. In the early forties I joined the CPI and this was the time of the antifascist war, when Subhas and the communists had became irreconcilable antagonists. Still later, in the stormy years of 1945-46, I was an active organiser of the massive struggles of the Calcutta students in the final battle for freedom, when communists and followers of the Bose fought shoulder to shoulder against the common enemy-British imperialism. Finally in the last two decades, CPI and forward Bloc had more often been allies than enemies. But the complex history of the long relationship and conflict-has so far not been tackled by any Marxist historian.
