Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Rash Behari Bose.
In 1942, Rash Behari Bose chaired the Indian Independence League to formally launch the Indian National Army (INA). Bose, a veteran revolutionary living in exile in Japan, played a crucial role in organizing Indian nationalists in East Asia and setting the stage for the INA. While Captain Mohan Singh was instrumental in the initial formation of the INA with Indian prisoners of war, the political leadership of the Indian Independence League at this crucial juncture was under Rash Behari Bose. Later, in 1943, Subhas Chandra Bose took over the leadership of both the League and the INA.
