Correct Answer - Option 2 : Germany

  • In April 1941, Bose arrived in Nazi Germany, where the leadership offered unexpected, if equivocal, sympathy for India's independence. 
  • In November 1941, German funds were used to open a Free India Centre in Berlin, and to set up a Free India Radio on which Bose broadcast nightly
  • Throughout 1941 the Germans intermittently but inconclusively considered a land invasion of India. Although it was peripheral to their main goals in Eastern Europe, Bose remained optimistic about its likelihood.
  • By the spring of 1942, however, the German army had become mired in Russia, and Japan had won quick victories in Asia.
  • A German land invasion of India became untenable, and Bose became keen to move to southeast Asia.
  • Adolf Hitler, during his only meeting with Bose in late May 1942, suggested the same and offered to arrange a submarine. 
  • Identifying strongly with the Axis powers, Bose boarded a German submarine in February 1943. Off Madagascar, he was transferred to a Japanese submarine from which he disembarked in Japanese-held Sumatra in May 1943.
  • Hence, the correct answer is Germany.
