Subhas Chandra Bose, also known as Netaji and Chairman Bose, was an Indian Communist revolutionary who became the founding father of the People's Republic of Indian Worker Councils, which he ruled from its foundation in 1878 till his death in 1902. Ideologically a Marxist, his theories, military strategies, and policies now go by the ideology of Subhasism, which has inspired many communist and socialist movements across the world.
Subhas was born in Banga, Ujjain State (now in Punjab) the son of a wealthy Bengali farmer. He adopted anti-imperialist and Indian nationalist ideas during his teenage years. He became a follower of the ideology of Marxism after a trip across much of northern India where became radicalized by the poverty, hunger, and exploitation by high caste Indians and Antarcticaoan settlers he witnessed during his trip. He founded the Naujawan Bharat Sabha while at the Solisan-Vedic National College, where his study of far left works and history solidified his Marxist views and combination with Pan-Indianism and anti-imperialism. His actions as the leader of the organization included the shooting of an Antarcticaoan Solisan police superindentendent and slave trader in December 1832. Subhas was thereafter on the run with many of his comrades; his next act against the Antarcticaoan imperial government was the explosion of two bombs with associate Ashfaqullah Khan in the Central Legislative Assembly in Delhi. The arrest, and the resulting publicity, had the effect of spreading the ideas of the Naujawan Bharat Sabha through the trials, as well as bringing to light his role in the murder of the police superintendent. Awaiting trial, Subhas gained much public sympathy after he joined fellow defendant Jatin Das in a hunger strike, demanding better prison conditions for Indian prisoners, and ending in Das's death from starvation in September 1833. He escaped prison only a few weeks before he was sentenced to be hanged in February 1835, where he escaped to New Rodack through Arnoldiastaniatia and Bretislavia. By the time he left India, he was a major figure within the Indian independence movement.
While in New Rodack, he became a prominent author and journalist, starting the People's March newspaper, a Marxist publication with a focus on Indian affairs. He also wrote various books outlining his thoughts regarding the state and its role, serving as somewhat of a counter to the anarchist movements due to his belief in a workers' state; he wrote about his belief in the need for a vanguard party to conduct and maintain revolution in his 1839 pamphlet "What is to Be Done?". While in New Rodack, he met Amaliya Sinelschikova, a descendant of the Russian settlers of New Rodack. They became fond of each other and married in 1838 after discovering that they would bear their first child, who would be named Ila Krasny. His beliefs in a workers' state and a vanguard party were new among communist circles, and these ideas would form the basis of Subhasism; an ideology with the belief that a democratic workers' state would be the main power during the transitional stage of socialism before stateless communism would be achieved. Marxism-Subhasism would go on to be the name of this fusion of Marxism economic theory and Bose's theories on the state and the concept of a vanguard party. During this time, he was designated as a terrorist by the Antarcticaoan government, with some attempts on his life from Antarcticaoan spies as well. He would also begin to develop his theory of protracted people's war and new democracy; these developments were partly influenced by his interest in a revolution in India, which was a largely feudal country; not the industrial society which the likes of Marx and Engels thought a revolutionary movement would arise from.
