Bhagwanji, also known as Gumnami Baba (lit. 'Baba with no name'), was an ascetic who lived approximately the last thirty years of his life in various parts of Uttar Pradesh, India. He is best known for being the object of unfounded rumors that asserted his real identity as being Subhas Chandra Bose. These claims have repeatedly been found to be unsubstantiated by numerous investigations.^[1][2] Bose died in a plane crash on 18 August 1945, but legends and rumors of his purported survival have circulated ever since.

Bhagwanji died on 16 September 1985, in Ayodhya.
