Kept 'Bose'? He is the best wrong word here, and he really did say it first, but the five is what Gandhi is called, not who called him it. Kept 'government'? That is who never granted it, which is true and still not the title.
This one really happened. On 6 July 1944 Subhas Chandra Bose, speaking on Azad Hind Radio, addressed Gandhi as Father of our Nation and asked for his blessing. The words stuck. No government ever made it official. Today, 2 October, is Gandhi's birthday.
