A MAN OF THOUGHT
There
is the other side of the river. 'In fact, the people of India
and also of the World have known Subhas Chandra as a great leader
and organiser, but most of them are not aware that he as also
a thinker, if not a system builder in the strict sense of the
term. His ideas are so comprehensive and coherent in character',
that these could easily be developed as a system if his 'life
of action' had not been given top priority.
What
he advocated during 1920's, 30's and 40's; regarding the meaning
and expression of socialism, regarding the character of revolution,
regarding the ways for achieving socialism and build up national
economy, also regarding planning and administrative processes;
are so relevant even today that these ideas and thought can enable
the people of India to come across their solitary life and build
up a new India. For last six decades and more, the political history
of India proves Gandhism as a complete failure, Nehruism as a
complete impractical and rather destructive approach, and the
leftism of absolute Marxist ideas as an idle workshop of irrational
political theoretician. In fact, now there prevails a vaccum in
the ideological sphere of the Indian polity, which is the prime
source of social and political instability, the root economic
starvation, the cause of moral and ethical bankruptcy, and of
mass frustration. At this juncture, the only way will be Netaji's
philosophical ideas, political thought and his formulated programme,
for the survival of the people of India. Today the people of India
should have one single slogan: Build up India in Netaji's way.
