Correct Answer:

3

Explanation:

The Indian national movement wasn't a solitary endeavor; rather, it was an integral part of the global campaign against colonialism and imperialism. Its impact reverberated through the liberation movements across numerous Asian and African nations. Prior to India's attainment of Independence, a web of connections existed between Indian nationalist leaders and those from other colonies. Their unity stemmed from a shared commitment to combat colonialism and imperialism.

A remarkable testament to these interconnected struggles was the formation of the Indian National Army (INA) by Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose during the Second World War. This stood as a vivid demonstration of the interwoven bonds established between India and the Indian diaspora abroad during the fight for freedom.
