Explanation

Subhas Chandra Bose was the first to refer to Mahatma Gandhi as 'Father of the Nation' in a radio address from Singapore in 1944. Note: there are typos - 'Jawahar Lal Nahru' should be 'Jawaharlal Nehru', and 'Subhas Chandre Bose' should be 'Subhas Chandra Bose'. Lala Lajpat Rai was a prominent leader but didn't use this title.
