Bhagat Singh : 27 September 1907 23 March 1931)[2] was an Indian nationalist considered to be
one of the most influential revolutionaries of the Indian independence movement. He is often referred
to as Shaheed Bhagat Singh, the word "Shaheed" meaning "martyr" in a number of Indian languages.

Born into a Sandhu Jat Sikh family which had earlier been involved in revolutionary activities
against the British Raj, as a teenager Singh studied European revolutionary movements and was
attracted to anarchist and marxist ideologies. He became involved in numerous revolutionary
organizations, and quickly rose through the ranks of the Hindustan Republican Association (HRA) to
become one of its main leaders, eventually changing its name to the Hindustan Socialist Republican
Association (HSRA) in 1928.

Subhas Chandra Bose ( listen (helpinfo); 23 January 1897 unknown[1]) also known
as Netaji (Hindi/Bengali: Respected Leader), was one of the most prominent Indian nationalist
leaders who attempted to gain India's independence from British rule by force during the waning years
of World War II with the help of the Axis powers.
Bose, who had been ousted from the Indian National Congress in 1939 following differences with the
more conservative high command,[2] and subsequently placed under house arrest by the British,
escaped from India in early 1941.[3] He turned to the Axis powers for help in gaining India's
independence by force.[4] With Japanese support, he organised the Indian National Army, composed
largely of Indian soldiers of the British Indian army who had been captured in the Battle of
Singapore by the Japanese. As the war turned against them the Japanese came to support a number
of countries to form provisional governments in the captured regions, including those in Burma.
