Explanation:

4th option is incorrect i.e. Subhash Bose advocated Fascism and Communism for India but did not supported the Expansionist policy of Germany and Japan.

Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose was a great Indian patriot. His legendary escape from India on 1941, the formation of Azad Hind Fauz and his military expedition against the British Imperialism with the help of the Axis powers evokes strong emotions among the Indians even today. He has become a national hero. But at the same time he has also become the object of historical analysis. His act of taking the help of the Fascist powers during the Second World War, his opinion of a synthesis between fascism and communism and some of his other statements in favour of fascism has raised debates among historians. Historians and politicians are divided in their opinions as to whether Subhas was fascist sympathizer? This debate sprang up during the penultimate phase of India’s Independence and continues till today. However by examining the contemporary situation and Bose’s general approach to Fascism we shall try to reach a conclusion.
There is a body of evidence appear to demonstrate that Subhas Bose was an ardent admirer of Fascism and he felt that fascism was best suited to fulfill the interests of an emerging nation like India. Subhas Chandra had studied different forms of Government with a view to find out as to which one would be suitable for India. He was skeptical about the success of parliamentary democracy in India and believed that the working of the democratic institutions in countries like France, England and the United States of America gave the clear impressions that democratic system could not solve the problem of free India. Only a state of authoritarian character could solve India’s problems and help her restructuring her socio-economic systems.

1. He was of the view that there would be not democracy in the Mid-Victorian sense of the term, but there would be a government run by a strong party bound together by military discipline, ‘as the only means of holding together and preventing a chaos, when Indians are free and thrown entirely on their own resources.

2. To fulfill the above mentioned objectives he wanted, as he mentioned in his book entitled “The Indian Struggle”, a synthesis between Fascism and Communism. He disagreed with
Jawaharlal Nehru that there was no middle road between Fascism and Communism and India had to choose one path between the two.
