Explanation

Subhash Chandra Bose founded the All India Forward Bloc in 1939. This occurred after he resigned from the presidency of the Indian National Congress due to ideological differences with Mahatma Gandhi and other members of the Congress Working Committee. While Bose is famously associated with the Azad Hind Fauj or Indian National Army, that organization was developed later in Southeast Asia to fight for independence. The Forward Bloc was specifically the political party he established within the left wing of the nationalist movement immediately after his departure from the Congress leadership. Therefore, option D is the correct answer.
