How different would India be today If Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose had become our 1st prime minister instead of JL Nehru?

If Subhash Chandra Bose had become First PM then India turns into dictatorship.

Netaji Bose, by his own admission in his book, "Indian Struggle" (published in 1935 in London), believed India needed a political system that was a mix of fascism and communism something that he called samyavad.

Netaji made a special trip to Rome in 1935 to present a copy of his book to Italian dictator Benito Mussolini, whom he greatly admired and whose ideals he would follow for the rest of his life.

Bose's reactionary views naturally brought him into conflict with the pacifist leaders of Congress, most notably Mahatma Gandhi and Pandit Nehru.

Netaji seems to have liked Nazism more than fascism. In a speech to students of Tokyo University in 1944, Netaji said India needs to have a philosophy that “should be synthesis between national socialism (Nazism) and communism” . [1]

In my opinion, Subhash Chandra Bose was a great leader but that time he was not aware so much about consequences of Nazism and communism.

Communism purpose has been always “ Believe in equality and welfare of poor people “ But it has converted into new class where ruler started exploitation of People, North korea and China is example.
