Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose previously lived in Netaji Bhawan, a building constructed in 1909. It played an important part in the Indian independence movement as a center for radical thought and political activity.<\/p>\n<p>It is now an extensive museum devoted to Netaji&#8217;s brilliant life and the turbulent Indian freedom movement. Many of Netaji&#8217;s personal things are exhibited, including his characteristic khaki uniform, furnishings, pens, shoes, clocks, etc. You will discover a variety of Netaji-related artifacts collected from throughout the globe.<\/p>\n<p>A well-stocked library with books and other reading materials written by and about the legendary leader is another feature of Netaji Bhawan. You can even go see the real automobile he fled in and the hidden stairs. A trip to Netaji Bhawan is like turning back the hands of time and unfolding the pages of a history book.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re prepared to listen, every crevice of the historic structure is eager to share a tale with you. It is not shocking that many of Netaji&#8217;s supporters go to this museum to put his life and death together because they were nothing short of a jigsaw puzzle. The Netaji Research Bureau owns and manages the museum and the adjacent library.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-jorasanko-thakur-bari-museum\"><\/span>5.
