Netaji - Ten Truth seeking Questions to the present dysfunctional Government of India

Netaji on a voyage during WWII The saga of Netaji continues - his biography is read by millions Indian households as a part of children's awakening of patriotism. Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose - His Majesty's Opponent- the Indian Freedom Fighter who fought the colonial rules tooth and nail, Gandhiji's Patriot of patriots. Netaji's life's abrupt end shrouded with dubious plane crash and Govt of India's setting up of three Enquiry Commissions still not able to resolve the mystery. Rather, the Truth seekers and researchers on Netaji are increasingly getting a sixth sense feeling that a distinct quarter in the corridor of central power since the Nehru days are desperate to hide certain very serious facts from the people of this country. The feeling and belief that has grown stronger with each passing year since 1945 is that World War Allied forces’ governments and the Government of India( even after change of guards) has continued to act

Subhash Chandra Bose Missing Mystery Takes New Fold

Subhash Chandra Bose Missing Mystery Takes New Fold - By Ananth - Published: 08/11/2011 Although there have been several stories about Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose's whereabouts, many publications and articles have announced his demise after all the efforts of tracing him went futile. Numerous commissions and organizations have conducted various investigations to chase the mystery, ironically, the living witness Nizamuddin was never contacted by anyone. The 107-year old Nizamuddin, who asserts to be the driver of Netaji in Azad Hind Fauj (AHF), is presently residing in Islampura, Bilariyaganj that is situated in Azamgarh district. The retired driver mentioned that had spent four years with Bose after joining the AHF in 1942. Nizamuddin is extremely confident that Bose must have not lost his life in the plane crash in 1945. "How can it be possible when I had dropped him by the car on the banks of Sitangpur river near the border of Burma and Thailand about three-fou

The case relates to an RTI application filed by activists Anuj Dhar and Chandrachur Ghose who had sought a copy of the manuscript of the book by P C Gupta, written 60 years ago, from the Defence Ministry.

Jan 19, 2012, 02.31AM IST   TNN CUTTACK: With only a few days to go, the Netaji museum here is yet to come up with any concrete plan for celebrating the 115th birth anniversary of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose on January 23 next. "Every year we add something new to the museum on the occasion of Netaji Jayanti, but unfortunately, this year there is no such programme. We had thought about setting up a gallery dedicated to the spiritual life of Netaji, but the project has not been completed due to delay in construction work," said J P Das, the curator of Netaji museum. Similarly, with the model code of conduct for the panchayat poll in force, neither the chief minister nor any other minister will visit the museum on that day. Every year authorities make elaborate plans to celebrate the day at the Netaji museum. The chief minister and other senior political leaders attend the programmes and address public meetings, but this year there would be no such event. It was also

Azad Hind

In October 1943 Bose established the Provisional Government of Azad Hind (Free India). The provisional government immediately declared war on the United States and Britain , and in January it located its capital in Japanese-occupied Yangon ( Rangoon ), Burma . Meanwhile, Bose worked diligently to promote harmony between Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs within his army and continued his radio broadcasts to India . n early 1944 Bose induced the Japanese to invade India . Japanese and INA forces entered India in March, advancing to the outskirts of Imphal in the northeast. There, they besieged the British garrison until the beginning of the monsoon rains in June. The rainy season prevented further attack and gave the British time to reinforce their positions, and the British were able to turn back the invading army. In May 1945 the INA surrendered in Yangon . Bose escaped, making his way eventually to Japanese-occupied Saigon (now Ho Chi Minh City , Vietnam ). When Japan announced its

The Azad Hind Fauj or the Indian National Army (INA) grew from Singapore where on 15th February, 1942 eighty-five thousand men of the British army in Malaya surrendered to the Japanese.
