March 30, 2014
The Indian freedom movement was largely led by those who exchanged professional success for an uncertain life of struggle and sacrifice. Mohandas Gandhi, Motilal Nehru and Vallabhbhai Patel each abandoned a lucrative legal practice. Subhas Chandra Bose and Morarji Desai turned their back on careers in the civil service. Jamnalal Bajaj built a flourishing business empire before joining Gandhi in prison. Had they not chosen politics as a vocation, Maulana Azad and Ram Manohar Lohia could have been famous academics; Jawaharlal Nehru and Jayaprakash Narayan prosperous writers.

March 27, 2014
Blending a lineage of erudition and nationalism, Harvard University history professor Sugata Bose, grandnephew of Indian revolutionary Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, envisions a globally competent India in terms of education as he joins the political battle for the Lok Sabha elections.
Attired in cotton kurtas and churidars, the standard attire of Indian politicos, the Trinamool Congress candidate presents a picture of unassuming ease in both urban and rural Bengal as he sets about attending workers' meetings in the Jadavpur constituency. His mother Krishna, an eminent writer and educationist, is a three time parliamentarian from the constituency.
A Professor’s bid to re-write Bengal’s history from Jadavpur
March 24, 2014
“Ki sundor katha bole… Phoren return. Netaji r moto dekhte noye jadiyo.” (He speaks so well. He’s returned from abroad. But he doesn’t resemble Netaji). This is how awe-struck Trinamool supporters described their party’s Jadavpur candidate — Sugata Bose.
A Gardiner professor of history at Harvard University, Sugato is also the grand-nephew of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose. His foray into politics comes at the behest of Mamata Banerjee.
New classroom for history prof
March 20, 2014
A historian cannot but talk history, be it in a Harvard classroom or in front of a hometown crowd of political supporters.
Sugata Bose, professor of oceanic history at Harvard University and the Trinamul Congress’s candidate for the Jadavpur Lok Sabha seat, peppered his 17-minute speech at his first karmi sabha (workers’ meet) with nuggets of history to illustrate why he had thrown his hat in the ring and what he wanted his supporters to tell the voters.
Sugata Bose evokes Netaji’s “Delhi Chalo” in poll campaign
March 19, 2014
“If TMC gets all 42 seats in West Bengal, then none can stop Bengal’s development”
“The roads to Delhi are many and Delhi still remains our goal,” said noted historian and Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose’s grandnephew, who is also the Trinamool Congress candidate from the Jadavpur Lok Sabha seat, quoting Netaji as party chairperson Mamata Banerjee introduced him to the cadre on Tuesday. She described him as a “unique candidate” who spent considerable time within the country, despite his overseas preoccupations.
Proud that Mamata asked me to contest elections
