About the Paper

This paper examines Subhas Chandra Bose's July 1933 visit to Poland using documents from the Embassy of Poland in Vienna, the Consulate of Poland in Bombay, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Poland, and other Polish state institutions from 1933-1936.

The paper presents Bose's visit as a defined attempt to think through Indo-Polish relations, with ideas that could materialise only decades later. It includes original Polish documents and English translations.
