Jai Hind

Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose was patriotic since his childhood. He once assaulted his college professor named Oaten as the latter made anti-India statements!

He did not believe in military rule. Rather he supported democratic ideologies. There might be many with whom he had a difference of opinion but nobody hated him. He was loved and respected by all.

However, he believed that if necessary then one must resort to violence for the welfare of the nation!

He made a friendship with Adolf Hitler, the Dictator of Germany as the latter was the enemy of the British and he believed in the simple principle that my enemy's enemy is my friend!

Zain -ul Abideen Hasan,the son of a Collector from Hyderabad, and a major in INA , participated in India campaigns. Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose wanted an Indian style salute in his army and various suggestions came up from different persons. 

Zain-Ul-Abideen came up with 'Jai Hind' which Netaji Bose had gladly accepted. The Term "Jai Hind" was initially coined by Shenbagaraman Pillai in 1907. This slogan was later adopted by Subhas Chandra Bose for INA based on the recommendation of Zain-Ul-Abideen in 1941.

The officers in his army 'Azad Hind Fauj' greeted each with these words.

Jai Hind!
