Netaji's Grandnephew Chandra Kumar Bose Plans Azad Hind Party Inspired by Youth Protests
Chandra Kumar Bose, grandnephew of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, announced plans to launch the Azad Hind Party inspired by recent Gen Z protests at Delhi's Jantar Mantar over the NEET-UG 2026 paper leak. Bose, who left both the BJP and Trinamool Congress, said the party would embody Netaji's inclusive and secular ideology and provide young Indians a platform to address widespread corruption and frustration with existing political systems. The protests led to the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, highlighting youth demands for accountability.
