by the main protagonists about the expedition, the INA march etc. This
is followed by an introduction by the author and expedition leader, Akhil

to go to the section of your choice and interest. It is divided into four
main sections:

in the form of extensive hypertext linking.
The Road: This part covers the route taken by the expedition following
the trail of INA.One can visually trace the path by clicking on the place
names as marked on the route. Doing so leads you to the details of that
particular place with its past and present descriptions. It also allows
access to information based on events that took place (past or present),
or about the people involved in the present and past marches.
The Army: This part includes the history of the INA and a section
on their memorabilia. It also includes screens about INA insignia, marching
songs, ranks, postage stamps and various other objects and ideas connected
with the Freedom Army.

anniversary of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose and provides a view of his
life with all its landmark events. A sub-section contains his speeches
